I'm a 1980s baby, not a millennial. I think you have to define experiences. Experiences need not be complex, far away, or expensive. My observation is that many millennial have more money than brains, unless they're the ones that have an attitude, can't hold down a job, or think they deserve something. These folks spend on fleeting experiences in order to get the quick thrill of the instsgram or Facebook picture, which they morph into an image of just how successful and how luxurious their life is implied to be.
Yet they are t getting ahead, they aren't getting material things to make life easier, and they carry an entitlement attitude often enough to make others bothered.
By all means not all are like this, but some are. It's likely every generation thinks about the next being different and wrong.
I don't deserve anything.
I don't waste money on fleeting "luxury", but bins fine quality which helps me save time. I'll gladly spend a lot of money on material things that save me time.
That time then equates to experiences, be they low cost or high cost, with family.
Cross that with some decent vacations, some decent saving, and as much time as I can applied to family.
I fear that millennials spend more time on social experiences that really just use cash, that is, booze and low-value social events that quickly erode cash.
