NEW YORK -- More than one-fifth of millennials in the U.S. -- 22 percent -- haven't heard of, or aren't sure if they've heard of, the Holocaust, according to a study published Thursday, on Israel's Holocaust Remembrance Day. The study, which was commissioned by The Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany and conducted by Schoen Consulting, also found that 11 percent of U.S. adults overall haven't heard of the Holocaust or aren't sure if they did.

I think we can safely say that President Donald Trump has changed American politics forever. He won the White House with no political experience, didn’t release his tax returns, and the extent to which Russia was involved in tilting the election is still under investigation. In the midst of all of Trump’s deception and corruption, there’s one rule he had to follow: yielding to the word of God.

White evangelicals embrace scandal-plagued Trump. Black churches enable fakes. Why should we embrace this?

More young people may be buying into the “flat Earth” conspiracy theory, and one can’t help but wonder whether celebrity flat-Eather truthers are to blame. A new study by YouGov published Monday reveals that only 66 percent of American 18 to 24-year-olds, a major chunk of the country’s millennials, firmly believe the Earth is round. The survey also shows that the younger respondents tended to be, the more likely they were to have doubts about the long-established fact of a globe-shaped Earth.

Toys R Us will close or sell each of its more than 700 locations in the US. In the company's most recent annual filing, it cities declining birth rates as a threat to sales. Births have decreased rapidly since 2008 in the US, especially among millennial women. Toys R Us was one of the last national toy chains, and other similar retailers could be in trouble. Millennials are defined as those born between 1981 and 1996. They're more college-educated and marry later than previous generations.

Even millennials are getting sick of Instagram. More than half of users between the ages of 18 and 24 revealed they are “seeking relief from social media,” according to a survey.

Most Millennials are not on track when it comes to saving for retirement. That's no surprise. After paying bills, rent and making student loan payments, there's often not much leftover each month for young people, many of whom entered the workforce at a time of stagnant wages and high unemployment. But a new report shows just how far off track they might be. About 66% of people between the ages of 21 and 32 have absolutely nothing saved for retirement, according to the National Institute on Retirement Security. The report is based on Census data collected in 2014.

Elderly people tend to get all the flak for falling prey to dubious online scams. But it appears that the trend may have nothing to do with seniority, according to an annual report from the Federal Trade Commission. In 2017, millennials reported losing money to fraud more often than those over the age of 70, the study showed.

UK millennials are on track to be the most overweight generation since records began, health experts say. Based on population trends, more than seven in every 10 people born between the early 1980s and mid-90s will be too fat by the time they reach middle age. In comparison, about half of the "baby boomer" generation, born just after World War Two, were fat at that age. Being fat as an adult is linked to 13 different types of cancer, says Cancer Research UK, who did the analysis.

If you’re wondering why millennials don’t have much sex, and don’t buy cars, forget social theorizing: the harsh truth lies in their near-empty wallets. By Samantha Allen.

UK millennials have suffered the worst falls in their incomes of any nationality apart from Greece over the past decade. In a new report, the Resolution Foundation think tank calculates that average real hourly earnings for under-30s in Britain fell 13 per cent between 2007 and 2014.

Financial pundits the world over, more comfortable in dealing in tangible commodities and assets, have described the cryptocurrency scene as too volatile to risk long-term investment. Whether you agree with them or not, it’s hard not to see why they should reach such a conclusion. Almost all of the large financial and commercial institutions have taken a pass when it comes to utilising Bitcoin or its competitors in anything but the most experimental test markets. So much so that when Banco Santander recently announced its roll-out of an altcoin powered money transfer application, it was big news.

It takes a lot of hard work to get into places like Yale and Stanford. But once students make it to the Ivy League, many find that while they’re ready to tackle Shakespeare and comparative political systems, they’re lost when it comes to building emotionally rich, and balanced lives. To that end, a growing number of top universities are offering courses that aim to put students on the happiness track.

In a stressful, data-driven era, many young people find comfort and insight in the zodiac—even if they don’t exactly believe in it.

"The boomers inherited a rich, dynamic country and have gradually bankrupted it."

Why millennials are facing the scariest financial future of any generation since the Great Depression. I am 35 years old—the oldest millennial, the first millennial—and for a decade now, I’ve been waiting for adulthood to kick in. My rent consumes nearly half my income, I haven’t had a steady job since Pluto was a planet and my savings are dwindling faster than the ice caps the baby boomers melted.

From what I can tell, as I watch my few remaining follicles wither and die, male pattern baldness is a phenomenon almost entirely without merit. First you have hair that bounces and swishes like a young Leonardo DiCaprio riding a stallion along the surf, and then it goes away and suddenly you’ve got a thumb for a head.

These apps for millennial parents track a child's whereabouts, internet usage, and even bowel movements on a smartphone. Gee whiz...do you think anybody else is listening in?

One in four millennials are investing their hard-earned money in the leading digital currency Bitcoin instead of opening traditional bank accounts. They claim that they earn more from their Bitcoin investments and their money is safer, according to a survey. Based on the survey conducted Blockchain Capital, 70% of the 10,000 millennials who were polled claimed that they are not content with the interest rates offered by banks and almost 65% said that their money is safer in Bitcoin because they personally control it.
