Investor Insights

Family of Four

June 16, 2025

Enjoy this week's "Investor Insights," a weekly newsletter that highlights the financial news you need and provides tips and tricks for making better investment decisions. 

 

  • A family of four now needs an average annual income of $233,100 to live comfortably. Massachusetts is the most expensive ($314K); Mississippi is the cheapest ($187K). Only seven states require less than $200,000. 1
  • Stock ownership is highest among households earning $100K+ (87%), college grads (84%), and married adults (77%). It drops to 49% for unmarried adults, 42% for those with only a high school education, and 28% for households under $50K. 2
  • A recent poll by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York showed that 31% of manufacturing firms and 45% of service firms have passed all tariff costs on to their customers. Roughly 25% of both types of firms decided to absorb the costs. 3
  • Job postings in software development and information design have decreased by over 37% since February 2020, likely due to the impact of AI. Meanwhile, physician and surgeon postings have risen the most. 1
