Summary
Faced with inflation, taxes and concerns over the size of Social Security benefits, most Americans are more afraid of going broke in retirement than they are of death.
In total, 64% of respondents across generations said they are more stressed about running out of funds in their golden years than the prospect of death.
Americans say they need $1.26 million to finance a comfortable retirement, yet the median amount saved is $87,000. “Certainly for boomers…inflation is a big deal.”
Ive been thinking that for a the last few years. When I get to be too tired to work, Im just gonna get a gun and a bullet. I dont want to be doing physical labor at 70. Im almsot 36 and Im already getting tired. So if thats it, then thats it.
