24. Key Findings
When our Millennials were asked about their social
relationships, we discovered that their social circles
can be quite unpredictable.While 31% are more likely
to hang out with someone with whom they share a
hobby, another 20% responded that they enjoy
spending time with other Millennials from different
ethnic backgrounds. Only 7% find friends among
those who share the same political beliefs and 6% of
our Millennials prefer to socialize with members of
the same sex.
Although this generation at times seems to be more
focused on their careers than anything else, our study
shows that family is the most important thing to our
Millennials. Somewhat surprisingly, faith or religion
and having a good marriage are also more important
to our Millennials than having a successful career,
which ranked fourth on the list. Our Millennials are
also conscious of the need to save money and plan
for the future, which was ranked number five.
Our Millennials are very aware of the need to give back, so they are
actively donating and supporting various causes. Although 38%
donate to global charities and 44% to national charities, 86% of our
Millennials stated that they donate to their local charities, which
shows that even in this day and age the communities in which
Millennials live and work are very important. .
