"Young Affluents" Are The Future Of The Luxury Market
All industries must grow and evolve with the times, and the luxury market is no different. Used to catering to the "Baby Boomers," the luxury market is slowly (but surely) feeling a shift towards the younger generations, or the "Young Affluents." Referring to those age 40 years old and younger, the "Young Affluents" group includes Generation X and the Millennial generation, and they both have much different spending habits than their parents and grandparents.Even though some adjustments will need to be made regarding different tastes and attitudes, the industry is hardly upset by this developing trend. With a "want-it-all" attitude the Young Affluents spent an average of 32% more than the Baby Boomers last year, and there is no sign they plan on slowing down.
