Gen Zers in a survey said they need $200,000 a year to feel financially secure — more than any other generation

• Americans, in a Bankrate survey, said that they need nearly $200,000 annually to feel financially secure.
• Gen Zers, who already tend to feel financially vulnerable, said they need the most to feel secure.
• Gen Z is also coming up against rising costs other generations didn't contend with.

Americans think they need a whole lot more money than they're making to feel comfortable, according to a new survey.
