Millennials may be surpassing by Gen X in the workforce, but a new government report says they're not opening their own businesses quite yet.

The Small Business Administration's advocacy office found less than 2 percent of people born between 1982 and 2000 said they were self-employed, compared to 7.6 percent of Gen X-ers and 8.3 percent of baby boomers, according to 2014 census data. As the portion of employed millennials expanded steadily over the past 15 years, the portion of self-employed millennials only saw modest gains.
