    Millennials and Gen Zers are pulling in bigger paychecks, but much of their spending power is fueling short-term purchases like groceries and vacations, not savings.

    Savings is not a purchase.

      much of their spending power is fueling | short-term purchases like groceries and vacations |, not savings.

      I think it was pretty clear. The “like” is just giving an example of the short-term purchases. So it’s saying “fueling short-term purchases, not savings.”

      You actually interpreted the opposite of what it was saying.
