Many people who have put off major life milestones, such as getting married or having children, say those delays have improved their financial security.
Life Happens — a consumer outreach group based in Arlington, Virginia — has posted data on the effects of milestone delays in a summary of results from a survey of 2,000 Americans that was conducted in January.
About 61% of the participants said they had put off one or more traditional life milestones.
