The Cost of Waiting

It's never too early to start saving. The key is to set goals and get started. If you are already saving, keep going! If you haven't started, start now!

Retirement planning

Saving for retirement doesn't have to be complicated. It requires a commitment to your plan as you systematically put aside money for your future.

Try to determine when you want to retire and how much you will need to save to afford the lifestyle you want to enjoy. Consider:

  • Your future expenses.
  • Your future sources of income.
  • Unexpected events.

Think age 25 is too early to start saving for retirement? Think again. The longer you wait, the more you'll have to save to achieve the same goal. Say your goal is to save $150,000 by age 65. Check out this chart to see the power of time and compound interest (interest paid on your interest).
