Youth of Today -- No savings, no pension, huge debts-- Leaving school or university means financial independence -- but does it also mean debt? Some experts say the young should take some care. It is life, but not as we know it. As this year's school leavers and graduates in Britain move on to further education or work, tasting financial independence for the first time, they show signs of being entirely different to previous generations in their attitudes to money, according to information collected by Cash. Used to debt but more affluent than previous generations, the current crop of 16 to 24-year-olds is a complex sector of society. But if they can handle their debts, these 7.5 million young adults have the potential to become quite sophisticated on money matters. Cash looked for the financial hallmarks of this group. They are going to be big spenders -- and will be targeted heavily by retailers. 'The market for products and services aimed at this group has continued to thrive' , concludes research organization Mintel in its recent report for retailers 'Selling to and Profiting from the Under 25s'. This is 'partly because the period during which people are young, free and single, unencumbered (不受妨碍的) by parents and/or children has expanded to the late twenties and early thirties,' it says. While 13 percent of the population regularly pays their utility (公共设施), credit card and other bills late, this proportion rises to a remarkable 64 percent for 18- to 24-year-olds, according to research conducted among 1000 adults by uSwitch.com. In theory, this suggests that more than 4 million of them are heading for such poor credit ratings that they will find it difficult to borrow in the future. But lenders may become more flexible in their lending terms rather than lose out on this huge sector of the consumer market. Near one in three (28 percent) of people under 35 'do not consider their future financial position', according to research from Accenture HR Services. Although half of 18- to 25-year-olds want to own their home some day, they seem almost insurmountable hurdles, according to Mintel. 'For those who had not yet bought their own property, the prospect of trying to do so seemed daunting -- if not impossible -- financially.' Or could it be that their future prosperity will depend on whether they inherit properly from their parents? They regard as necessities many items which were seen as luxuries by their parents at the same age. More than nine out of ten have their own mobile phones. 'Some looked on their phone as a kind of security blanket, feeling lost without it,' says Mintel. A car is seen as 'vital' by 64 percent of 18- to 25- year-olds, and designer clothes are worn by 44 percent of men and 35 percent of women in this age group, adds Mintel. Computer equipment is a high priority for many twenty-year-old people. Audio- visual equipment is particularly valued by young men. Credit card ownership is increasing. Nearly two-thirds of young adults have a card. More than half (58 percent) of the under-25s do not pay off their credit card bill in full each month, according to Mintel -- including 16 percent who owe more than £500. With credit card ownership predicted to increase nearly 20 percent by 2009, the younger age group could be increasingly targeted, as they are more accustomed to borrowing than older groups. Debt is commonplace in this age group. Barclays predicts that graduate debt will average £17,500 in 2006, rising to nearly £34 000 by 2010. A third of this group believe they are 'too young' to start thinking about a pension, according to Accenture. 'There is a sea change in behavior. going on here,' says Mervyn Kohler of Help the Aged. 'For recent graduates who are saddled with debt and struggling to buy a home, the last thing they would
