Are You Saving Enough for Retirement? | The Financial Mirror
Are you on track for retirement? In today's episode, we are diving deep into one of the most important financial questions you can ask yourself: Am I ready for retirement, or am I walking into it blind?
Retirement is not a matter of "if" — it's a matter of "when." At some point, every one of us will need to rely on savings and investments to fund our life when work is no longer an option. The earlier you start planning, the more confident and prepared you can be.
In this episode, we walk through two popular retirement calculators to show you how to check your retirement progress:
o A simple check-in using the Ramsey Solutions Retirement Calculator
o A more detailed forecast using the NerdWallet Retirement Calculator
You will see live examples of both, including:
o A basic scenario to quickly assess your retirement savings track
o A more complex, realistic forecast that factors in income, inflation, and Social Security
o A comparison of both calculators using the same starting information to highlight their differences
If you have never checked your retirement readiness before, today is the perfect time to start. If you are closer to retirement and feeling unsure, it is not too late to build a plan and gain peace of mind.
Key topics we cover:
o Why retirement planning matters at every age
o How a retirement calculator can give you clarity and direction
o The importance of intentional investing and saving now
o How small adjustments today can make a big difference later
Remember, retirement is coming whether you prepare for it or not. Start today. Your future self will thank you.
