AUSTRALIA'S
GROWING
POPULATION
Get ready!
There are 5.2 million boomers in
Australia born from 1946 to 1964.
This compares with six million
generation Xers born between 1965
and 1983. Generation Y, born across
the 18 years to 2002, is expected to
peak at about 7.4 million next
decade. [1]
With Australia’s population
expected to swell by mid-century
and the first wave of baby boomers
reaching retirement, building up the
nest egg has become more
important than ever. [2]
