The American Retirement System Is Broken...

Shari Rash, Money Podcast for Women, Personal Finance, Relationships & Mental Health
About this episode

When you take a peek at your retirement savings, how do you feel about how much you’ve saved? Excited, freaked out, or somewhere in between? No matter how you feel about your retirement savings, the truth is the system was set up to work well for only a small group of people. The American Retirement System, according to our guest Martin Baily, author of the new book The Retirement Challenge, is obsolete. So the logical question is, why did this happen and what can you do about it?
