Steps to Savings For Retirement

Approximately twenty percent of Americans indicate that saving for retirement is their most important financial goal – this according to a recent survey conducted by financial services company LendEDU.  As indicated by writer Katie Brockman, that’s the good news.  The bad news is that about four in 10 workers indicate that they won’t ever be able to save enough for retirement, rendering retirement the most unattainable financial goal reported by survey participants.  

Anirban breaks down the issue. 

Anirban Basu, Chariman Chief Executive Officer of Sage Policy Group (SPG), is one of the Mid-Atlantic region's leading economic consultants. Prior to founding SPG he was Chairman and CEO of Optimal Solutions Group, a company he co-founded and which continues to operate. Anirban has also served as Director of Applied Economics and Senior Economist for RESI, where he used his extensive knowledge of the Mid-Atlantic region to support numerous clients in their strategic decision-making processes. Clients have included the Maryland Department of Transportation, St. Paul Companies, Baltimore Symphony Orchestra Players Committee and the Martin O'Malley mayoral campaign.
