Saving for Retirement Isn't Enough, You Need to Invest in the Stock Market
Most people know they need to save around 10% to 15% of their income throughout their working life to have enough money to retire. But simply putting this money into a 401(k) or IRA isn't going to cut it - you need to make sure you're doing the right things with your retirement contributions. And for most people, that means investing some of the money in the stock market.
Investing part of your retirement money in equities doesn't have to be hard. And if you make smart choices about what you invest in, your contributed funds will work for you over time to help your nest egg grow.
