Workers in the 25 to 34 age group have seen the most dramatic rise in unemployment during the past year. Their unemployment rate went from 5.7% to 10% in July of 2009. On top of that, they usually have big bills to pay. The average undergraduate finishes college with $17,700 in debt if they went to a public school and $22,375 if they went to a private school. Part of this includes $4,100 in credit card debt.
