Should You Save for Retirement Now?

in LeoFinance3 years ago

There are many legitimate reasons to avoid saving for retirement, and there are many of them. Some of them may be your own. There are numerous reasons, though, why delaying retirement savings would make it more expensive for you in the long run.

You probably don't mind spending as much time as you can with your kids, if you have any. The decision to do so should, however, be your own. Most people don't want to spend their retirement years living with their children because they can't afford to live alone.

Consider the effects it might have on your kids if you have to rely on them, in addition to the fact that you don't want to give up your current way of life. As a result of having to help you financially, they can miss out on financial opportunities of their own and experience increased pressure on their own family.

According to its design, approximately 40% of the average wage earner's income is replaced by Social Security benefits after retirement. Your retirement income should not be based only on Social Security. You'll still need to come up with around 60% of the money you'll need to comfortably support yourself after retiring, even with Social Security.

Saving for your own retirement gives you the freedom to design the retirement you want. It could be necessary to make lifestyle adjustments to put aside more money today.

The likelihood that you will live the lifestyle you choose in the future will increase if you save of retirement now.

We should keep our gold in silver or gold because we have seen the prices of these two things going up a lot in the last three years. All these coins looks so beautiful and amazing. I wants to add all these coins in my collection. Thanks for sharing.

My gold is my forever stack. The silver is waiting for the right time to be converted into gold.
Yes, save!!!

With three and a half retirement accounts chances are I could even retire earlier if I wanted to. Maybe do some treasure hunting with my Metal detector.

Early preparation before retirement will make you still financial stable when you retire. I can remember when my mum retired she was paid pension, that was because she joined a pension company and the money was collected from her monthly salary. It was a big help when she retired

Pension plans are good! Here in the U.S., you either work for a company that has a 401 plan or a pension plan or not have any. But there is a Roth IRA.

We don't have Social Security, do have pension fund that will be eaten away by the rampant inflation within the country we life. Many children still live at home not being able to afford going it alone.

Different regions of the world have been surveyed where many younger generation feel they will never afford a home, will have to rely on rental which is never ideal.

Always put away for your retirement, it really is a must do, the younger the better in the long run!

I believe it's never too early to start investing in retirement! One should make use of company retirement plans, be careful not to foolishly cash out when changing jobs, and start from scratch.
The reality is that as we get older, living the lifestyle we're accustomed to becomes more and more out of reach once we're out of the job market; health-care spending increases - something else to invest in from an early age!
Having to downscale and move into a good retirement village/ home/ estate, can be costly and painful, although there are some really nice and affordable life-rights options, something we're looking at.
However, for now I love my side hustles which help supplement my income, but what about when my health starts fading?
Then the time will come to sell our biggest investment, our home, and move to that village for our golden years!

You are set, @lizelle!
Being prudent will pay off when it is time to retire!
You are an inspiration!

You have to save for retirement because although it is a time of life in which people tend to spend less, it is also true that their income will decrease a lot.
So it is a necessity if you want to reach the end of life in good condition.

You can save, then invest, then repeat... For retirement and beyond!

I don't put into the SS system and don't plan on that at all. My childern also offer no assistance to me and I don't plan on ever relying on them. I also think 'saving' for retirement is foolish, instead i want to build and amass assets to pay me what income I need to live..

and luv that liberty walking coin design!

I also think 'saving' for retirement is foolish

Hahaha! At some point, you save, don't you... to buy the assets that will give you dividends and passive income?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

yes. that's true. :P

what I should've said is I'd rather attain assets (investing/buying/building/etc) vs socking my money away just losing to inflation. :(

To go a step further, the younger folks of today who never purchase a home of their own; when they get to retirement age, that Social Security will NOT pay the rent! Ironically, their rent payment (depending on geographics) might more than pay for a house payment! I know several people in this very situation now, who really aren't considering the long haul. You can only imagine how rent will go up in the years to come and how difficult it's going to be to make ends meet. That's just housing! Where will they get the funds for food, utilities, necessities and so forth?

That's why planning is imperative and being diversified in those plans is important. There is so much that needs to be considered when planning. The earlier you begin the better, but just begin and don't put it off!
