In a year, that amounts to about 873 hours or nearly 36 days spent scrolling. <br/><br/>Conducted by OnePoll on behalf of financial services company Empower, the survey reveals half of respondents say they dreamscroll while on the job, and of those, one in five admit to spending between three and four hours a day multitasking while at work.<br/><br/>Gen Zers spend the most time dreamscrolling at just over three hours per day, while boomers spend the least, clocking in around an hour.<br/><br/>Survey respondents say looking at dream purchases makes it easier for them to be smart with their money (56%), avoid making unplanned purchases or going into debt (30%) and better plan to achieve their financial goals (25%).<br/><br/>Nearly seven in 10 see dreamscrolling as an investment in themselves (69%) and an outlet for them to envision what they want out of life (67%). Four in 10 respondents (42%) say they regularly spend time picturing their ideal retirement — including their retirement age, location and monthly expenses.<br/><br/>Scrolling for the American dream: one in five respondents are looking at homes or apartments (21%), while a quarter look at vacation destinations (25%), beauty or self-care products (23%), and items for their pet (19%).<br/><br/>Others spend time looking at clothing, shoes and accessories (49%); gadgets and technology (30%); and home décor or furniture (29%). <br/><br/>More than half (56%) currently have things left open in tabs and windows or saved in shopping carts that they’d like to purchase or own in the future. For those respondents, they estimate it would cost about $86,593.40 to afford everything they currently have saved.<br/><br/>Almost half of Americans say they are spending more time dreamscrolling now than did in previous years (45%) and 56% plan on buying something on their dream list before this year wraps. <br/><br/>While 65% are optimistic they’ll be able to one day buy everything on their list, nearly one in four say they don’t think they’ll ever be able to afford the majority of items (23%).<br/><br/>More than half (51%) say owning their dream purchases would make them feel more financially secure, and close to half say working with a financial professional would help them reach their goals (47%).<br/><br/>Others feel they have more work to do: 34% say they’ve purchased less things on their dream list than they should at their age, with millennials feeling the most behind (39%).<br/><br/>Top economic factors that may be holding some Americans back include rising prices (54%), inability to save money (29%) and growing debt (21%). <br/><br/>Instead of doom spending, dreamscrolling has had a positive impact on Americans’ money h")

![Ant and Dec surprised pupils and staff at a primary school - in recognition of leading the charge in teaching financial education. <br/><br/>The TV duo began their day at St Michael's Primary School in Southfields, south London, by delivering breakfast baskets to the staff room. <br/><br/>The surprises continued as they popped into a year five classroom during a financial education lesson, sparking excitement among the students. <br/><br/>Ant and Dec, who are Santander ambassadors, engaged the class with lively questions and even started a humorous debate about who the better saver was. <br/><br/>The visit culminated in an energetic interruption of the school assembly, attended by over 400 pupils and staff members. <br/><br/>Alongside Ant and Dec, Mike Regnier, Santander UK's CEO, commended the school's commitment to financial literacy, emphasising its importance. <br/><br/>The day ended on a high note with the presenting pair capturing a memorable selfie with the entire school.<br/><br/>And the event marked the one-year anniversary of the Financial Education Recognition Scheme [www.twinkl.co.uk/recognition] launched by the bank in partnership with educational publisher, Twinkl. <br/><br/>St Michael’s was one of the first schools to sign up to the scheme, which calls on schools to commit to teaching pupils a minimum of six hours of financial education each academic year - to help them grow into financially confident adults and ease anxiety about money. <br/><br/>Over 200 schools and educators have already signed up to the scheme. <br/><br/>Ant said: “Today was a lot of fun. Seeing the kids so engaged in their financial education lessons really brought home how important this learning is. <br/><br/>“The enthusiasm and smart questions from the pupils made our day.” <br/><br/>The Financial Education Recognition Scheme complements the work being done through 'The Numbers Game', by Santander and Twinkl, which provides free learning materials designed to improve numeracy and financial knowledge among primary and secondary school students.<br/><br/>Dec said: “Engaging with the kids and teachers at St Michael’s, answering their curious questions, and seeing the impact of an early financial education was all so rewarding.” <br/><br/>St Michael’s is one of the most active schools in the UK when it comes to teaching financial education. <br/><br/>Mike Regnier said: “It’s inspiring to see St Michael’s Primary School leading by example in the essential area of financial education, and that the children are having fun in the process. <br/><br/>“We know from our own research that there is strong evidence of the need for better financial education. <br/><br/>“Nearly 70 per cent of adults believe it would have helped them manage their money better during the recent increases in the cost of living, while over two thirds of parents think teaching children about money should start young and be on the primary school curriculum. <br/><br/>“By gaining financial literacy at a young age, the next generation will have the skills to make informed financial decisions and to create the future they want.” <br/><br/>The Numbers Game has been used by more than 100,000 teachers within 8,300 schools since 2022, and benefited over 2.5 million children and young people across the UK. <br/><br/>Headteacher of St Michael’s Primary School, Angela Harris, added: “I’m absolutely delighted to see the joy and engagement from our students during today's visit from Ant and Dec. <br/><br/>“It’s initiatives like the Financial Education Recognition Scheme that help us enrich our curriculum in ways that truly matter. <br/><br/>“Our partnership has not only brought essential financial concepts to the classroom but has also sparked a curiosity in our pupils about their future financial wellbeing. <br/><br/>“It's a proud moment for us to be acknowledged as a leader in the vital area of financial education.”](https://cdn6.hifimov.co/picture/preview/nUE0pUZ6Yl9mZF5xoJAxov5hMKDiqv9KFwq6ZQSwFURjK0D1AGZlDl9-ZwDjXFfbXRucEzyAo3LhL_8cK3tlAQN5v7P/(HiFiMov.co)_ant-amp-dec-surprise-pupils-who-pioneered-financial-learning-in-schools.webp "Ant and Dec surprised pupils and staff at a primary school - in recognition of leading the charge in teaching financial education. <br/><br/>The TV duo began their day at St Michael's Primary School in Southfields, south London, by delivering breakfast baskets to the staff room. <br/><br/>The surprises continued as they popped into a year five classroom during a financial education lesson, sparking excitement among the students. <br/><br/>Ant and Dec, who are Santander ambassadors, engaged the class with lively questions and even started a humorous debate about who the better saver was. <br/><br/>The visit culminated in an energetic interruption of the school assembly, attended by over 400 pupils and staff members. <br/><br/>Alongside Ant and Dec, Mike Regnier, Santander UK's CEO, commended the school's commitment to financial literacy, emphasising its importance. <br/><br/>The day ended on a high note with the presenting pair capturing a memorable selfie with the entire school.<br/><br/>And the event marked the one-year anniversary of the Financial Education Recognition Scheme [www.twinkl.co.uk/recognition] launched by the bank in partnership with educational publisher, Twinkl. <br/><br/>St Michael’s was one of the first schools to sign up to the scheme, which calls on schools to commit to teaching pupils a minimum of six hours of financial education each academic year - to help them grow into financially confident adults and ease anxiety about money. <br/><br/>Over 200 schools and educators have already signed up to the scheme. <br/><br/>Ant said: “Today was a lot of fun.
