It’s Lit: Millennials LIKE filing tax returns

Sometimes, there’s no explaining millennials.

Take tax season. While the rest of America groans over filing their 1040s, taxpayers under 34 relish it.

A new YouGov survey, for example, said that a majority “enjoy” filing taxes.


Said the survey:

While only 34 percent of the American public say they enjoy filing their taxes, either ‘somewhat’ or ‘a lot,’ that number rises to 52 percent for those between the ages of 18 and 34. And these millennials likely didn’t learn this from their elders, as only 21 percent of Americans over the age of 55 feel the same.

What gives?

YouGov hints that their taxes aren’t difficult, and require a short form. And they file early, giving them a return faster than most.
