Cover Story: This paper examines the relationship between generational differences, risk tolerance, and attitudes toward financial investments in a nationally representative sample from the United States of America. Using a probit model, all of the predictor variables are estimated to have statistically significant effects on the ownership of financial securities, with the expected sign effects. In general, Baby Boomers are more risk-averse and Generation Xers are more risk-loving than Millennials, accounting for education and income levels. The paper reveals a conundrum in which Baby Boomers (Gen Xers), although more (less) risk-averse, are more (less) likely to own financial securities. View this paper
