Why Is Retirement Planning Important?
Are you planning for retirement? As astonishing as it may sound, only 77% of American workers have a retirement fund. The remaining 33% struggle without a substantial retirement fund. While income and cash inflows slow down after retirement, spending does not. So it’s vital to find ways to ensure significant savings and steady income to support our needs. Soutas Financial & Insurance Solutions helps Clovis residents plan a retirement income strategy that is beneficial for them and their dreams. Let’s plan for a retirement that gives you ample financial strength to take care of your needs, health care, goals, and dreams.
What Is The Ideal Retirement Savings?
Although 77% of Americans have retirement savings, it is not sufficient, as per a government report. The report revealed that Americans aged 55 to 64 only had about $107,000 in retirement savings, which would only provide a payment of $310 per month, which is inadequate for typical retirement expenses.
If you’re wondering about the ideal retirement savings, we have an answer for you. To be frank, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question, as it depends on individual needs and goals. However, experts suggest that retirement savings between $500,000 and $1 million would be sufficient. Although this amount may seem like a lot, it is achievable through compounded investment.

When Is the Ideal Time to Start Retirement Planning?
Early retirement planning is the best way to get started. The earlier you begin, the more money you will save. According to Edward Jones, investing $550 per month when you’re 30 and assuming a 7% annual return can grow your retirement portfolio to around $990,000 by age 65. Investing the same amount at 35 and 45 can result in total savings of $670,000 and $445,000, respectively. In America, median-age workers start retirement savings at 27. It’s certainly a good time to start. See how you can get started on the best foot for your retirement planning.
