Women & Retirement: The Statistics (Part 1 of 3)


How would you like to start retirement with three marks against you?
That's the case for many women who...

(1) typically earn less than men during their careers

(2) are more likely to take time away from work to care for a relative (which limits contributions to retirement savings); and

(3) have a longer life expectancy, and, thus, need for a sizable nest egg.
