現(xiàn)在，千禧一代的負面形象又加深一點,，原因是“給小費很吝嗇”。

信用卡信息網(wǎng)站creditcards.com的一項新研究顯示,，10%的千禧一代在外就餐時根本不給小費,，而前幾代美國人中不給小費的僅占3%。

研究發(fā)現(xiàn),，就算給小費，千禧一代給的中位數(shù)也僅為15%,，低于美國的正常水平,，而且遠不及X一帶（60和70后）、嬰兒潮一代以及沉默一代（20世紀20-40年代生人）,，前幾代美國人給小費中位數(shù)為18%-20%。

面對Uber或Lyft司機等服務(wù)人員時,，小費情況基本類似——即使提供給小費的選項,，18%的千禧一代也不會給。不過參與調(diào)研的千禧一代中有近27%的人表示,，更希望在收費項目中列出服務(wù)費,，或者價格提高,，從而不必給小費。

給小費基本超過15%的不僅是千禧一代,。養(yǎng)孩子的父母,、收入較低的上班族以及受教育程度較低的人給小費都低于18%的整體中位值。

那么,，哪些人給小費最慷慨呢,？

上年紀的人出手最大方。在65歲以上人群中,，近55%的人會給20%或者更高的小費,。女性給的小費往往多于男性,，女性給小費中位數(shù)為20%,，而男性為16%,。接受過大學(xué)教育的人以及美國東北部和中西部的人往往也會給20%的小費，高于全國平均水平,。（財富中文網(wǎng)）

Now millennials can add “bad tippers” to the roster of negative stereotypes they’re associated with.

According to a new study from creditcards.com, 10% of millennials do not tip at all when eating out. In contrast, only 3% of the older generations don’t tip.

Even when millennials do tip, the study found that the median gratuity is just 15%. This is under the national average, and significantly less than Gen-X, baby boomers, and the ‘Silent Generation,’ all of whom leave a median tip of between 18 and 20%.

The same attitude applies to tipping those who provide services, such as Uber or Lyft drivers: 18% of millennials don’t tip them, even when provided with an option to do so. Nevertheless, close to 27% of the millennials surveyed suggested that they would prefer having a service charge included in items, thereby paying higher prices, and then doing away with tips.

But it’s not just millennials who are unlikely fork over more than 15%. Parents with young children, lower wage earners, and the less educated tip less than the overall median of 18%.

So who are the most generous?

Older people are among the most generous, with close to 55% of those over 65 tipping 20% or more. Women also tend to leave bigger tips than men, a median of 20% compared to 16%. Those who are college-educated or hail from the Northeast or Midwest also tend to leave a median of a 20% tip—above the national average.
