Plan Well, Retire Well

ASW: Facing Retirement

If you haven't guessed it by now, I am a Millennial. The idea of being 65+ is a concept that I can't completely grasp yet. I do worry about retirement and wonder if I am saving enough for my future self. Retirement will come, even if you say you won't "retire" one day you may need a nest egg! No matter what age you are, it's important to save for retirement.

In one of my graduate classes a few years ago, a professor showed us a really cool website. It was designed so that people could get a sense of what they might look like when they're older. It's called Face Retirement. This older-self would help to remind you that when we do age, we need to take care of ourselves now and in the future. Recently I wrote a whole blog on "Why is Saving for Retirement Important?" (Which goes in more depth on why you should save!)

Since it's America Saves Week – Take Action, today! Sign the pledge, save (some, more, lots) towards retirement, and your future self will thank you later!!
