Nearly three in four young adults say they need more than one source of income to feel financially secure, according to data from freelance marketplace Fiverr.

70% of Gen Z consider multiple income streams “essential” for a comfortable lifestyle.

47% fear they won’t achieve financial security, while 25% worry their salaries won’t keep up with inflation.

Many are responding by building side hustles alongside full-time work, with 51% already earning a second income.

The trend reflects growing concerns over a cooling jobs market, with vacancies falling 8% in August and nearly a third below last year.

Multiple income streams are the new safety net. No one trusts a single paycheck anymore, especially after recent layoffs.

From side gigs to passive income, Gen Z understands diversification better than any previous generation. Smart move.
