Stocks, real estate and futures speculations and lotteries are favored by China's current younger generation over down-to-earth way of making money, according to a survey conducted by China Youth Daily.

An overwhelming 76 percent said there's nothing wrong with living better by getting easy money and it shows that there's better awareness about money management among young people. Everything can be tried as long as it can result in money.

"Their parents' generation may put more value on stable jobs, but the youths diversify their lives and pursue personal goals," psychologist Zhong Shaolan said.
