Many millennials graduated from college and couldn't get a job due to the market crash. So, not only did they not have savings, they couldn't save if they wanted to. Then, by the time a good chunk could have savings and start investing, inflation slapped them in the face. Now, grocery shopping for a house full of kids is downright expensive. Not to mention, the amount of monthly bills a household is expected to pay is 4-500% of what their parents had to pay while wages have largely stayed the same, housing costs are through the roof because boomers want to make sure they get their "investments" back, and so on.
