Recently published savings guidelines recommend that a typical U.S. worker must save at least eight times their final salary to meet basic income needs during retirement. By saving eight times' income by age 67 should provide most U.S. workers with roughly 85 percent of their preretirement income in retirement, according to Fidelity’s recommendations.
The published
guidelines recommend that U.S. workers should have the equivalent of their annual salary in savings by age 35 to reach the first benchmark en route to fulfill their savings goal. From that benchmark, individuals should then plan to have saved twice their salary by age 40, four times' salary by age 50, five times by age 55 and six times by age 60. To stay on track under that savings plan strategy, a U.S. worker with a $60,000 salary must have saved not less than $240,000 by age 50. Setting a savings target that's a multiple of a worker’s income appears to be an increasingly popular concept in financial planning. Its advocates a belief that it is a simpler and more manageable way of monitoring progress toward retirement security than trying to achieve a certain level of assets. It must be assumed that the report’s 25-year retirement calculation estimates a minimum a 6% return on the 8-X-salary savings figure and $18,000 annual Social Security payments just to maintain 85% of previous earnings. It must also be assumed the typical U.S. employee does not have a pension as the published study cites 401(k)s savings accounts which are subject to stock market fluctuations. While a target of $1.0 million is largely un-attainable sum for most, this amount has been posted as the generally acceptable retirement savings target for most U.S. workers.
Based on the
published recommendations, a $50,000 year earner should have save at least $400,000 by retirement age. Such investment and economic stability isn't being enjoyed right now as result of current U.S. economic woes. As can be seen, experts cannot agree on what the ideal amount of savings required for retirement.
