CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) -
Retirement may be a long way off, but 30-somethings are worried about the money they'll receive after they stop working.
A new Pew survey took a look at people between 35 and 44 years old. About 49% said they had little or no confidence that they would have enough money for retirement.
The results show a major shift from just three years ago, when baby boomers were the most worried.
The results seem to have changed because the 35 to 44 age group was most likely to have bought a home at bubble prices. They've also seen their average wealth fall by $12,000 over the past decade.
