39% of Americans worry they can’t pay the bills
CNNNew York CNN — Many Americans regularly worry they won’t be able to make ends meet. Nearly four in ten of US adults say they worry most or all of the time that their family’s income won’t be enough to meet expenses, according to a new CNN poll. Even higher percentages of Latino and Black Americans said they’re worried most or all of the time about making ends meet, according to the poll. “We can talk all day about how inflation is moderating but the cumulative impact of several years’ worth of inflation has done a number on household budgets,” said Greg McBride, chief financial analyst at Bankrate. As a result of current economic conditions, most Americans say they’ve had to cut back on spending on extras and entertainment and changed their grocery buying, according to the CNN poll.
