Millennials may have given rise to the hustle culture, but when it comes to putting in hours in the gig economy, Baby Boomers might have them beat. Baby boomers — those born between 1946 and 1964 — earned the most money, took on the most gigs and earned the highest ratings on Wonolo, a platform where companies can find short-term workers. “I think traditionally, people think of the gig workers as millennials,” said Beatrice Pang, vice president of strategy and finance at Wonolo. Generation X workers, born between 1965 and 1980, earned an average of about $949 a month. Millennials, born between 1981 and 1996, earned about $777 a month, and Gen Z, the youngest generation in the workforce, earned about $616 a month.
