Survey – Hungarian youth worries about financial problems

The latest Magyar Ifjúsági Kutatás [Hungarian Youth Study] has been made public, and it reveals a lot of interesting (and concerning) things about the younger generations of Hungarians. Results suggest that financial difficulties are the major concern of 15-29-year-olds, 24.hu reports.

The study examines the status of the Hungarian youth (between the ages of 15-29), and it is a more than 500-pages-long document. This study has been conducted every four years since 2000.

8,000 Hungarians and 4,000 people from Hungarian minorities in other countries took part in the latest study (2016).

Financial concerns

Except for Transylvanian Hungarians who also reported other issues,

every group reported that their major concerns are: financial difficulties, insecurity, impoverishment and poverty.

In the study conducted in 2001, the participants’ major concern was employment and finding a job. This seems to be no longer the case, the Hungarian youth is primarily concerned with establishing financial security.

Education

9% of the participants left the education system after primary school, and 7% of them think that they will never get back to school.
