Will You End Up Retiring at 80?


Will You End Up Retiring at 80?

Though there's no such things as the perfect universal retirement age, many Americans hope to call it quits by the time they reach their 60s. In fact, if we go by Social Security's retirement calendar, today's older workers will reach full retirement age by the time they hit 66, 67, or somewhere in between.

It's therefore somewhat concerning to hear that more than 33% of middle earners think they'll need to work until age 80 or later before they're able to retire comfortably. Not only that, but the number of workers who anticipate retiring at or before age 65 has plummeted from 84% to 46% since 1991, or so says the Employee Benefit Research Institute.
