Can you save your retirement?
Many times I have been told that my Baby Boomer Retirement Blog presents an extremely dark picture of the future… Really?
You can disagree with this blog but you can not totally ignore one of the most influential financial media outlet: the Wall Street Journal. Here is what they said recently:
Is it too late to save your retirement?
For many, the answer is surely yes. News out this week shows that 29% of those who have already retired have saved nothing at all to support themselves, while only a third have saved at least $50,000.
To put this in context: A retirement account of $50,000 will provide a 65-year-old man with an annuity of just $4,000 a year.
Does this sound to you as a decent retirement? Read the rest of the article at WSJ…
