Coupled with the rise in the cost of production is the increased in indebtedness putting young worker's financial well-being at stake.

While, multiple regression results showed that all eight variables explained 27.4% of the variance of financial well-being whereby the variable of attitude towards money that is the dimension of ability/effort have a unique contribution towards financial well-being.
