Think You’re Ready to Retire? These Numbers Say Otherwise


Listen Later

Think you’re ready to retire? Before you make that leap, take a hard look at the latest retirement savings data. According to new studies, the average 401(k) balance for people in their 60s might not be enough to guarantee financial freedom, and the median numbers tell an even more sobering story.

 
In this episode, we break down how much you should have saved for retirement by your 60s, reveal the surprising gap between the average and median 401(k) balances, and explain what those numbers really mean for your future.
