Given current trends it is likely that they will remain at considerably greater risk than other households in 2030. Young people have fared particularly poorly in recent decades with their entry into the labour market being increasingly delayed, their relative earnings falling and their access to alternative incomes, and in particular benefits, being eroded. By 2030 it is highly likely that in many countries access to benefits for young people will have disappeared and they will be increasingly dependent on their families, loans contingent on education and employment for their income. As education expands, those who fail to keep up are increasingly likely to find themselves marginalised. Similarly, those whose families are unwilling or unable to support them will find it considerably harder to make ends meet.
