In your early working years, retirement might be the last thing on your mind. You’re likely focused on jump-starting your career, handling bills, paying off student loans and managing other expenses. However, delaying your contributions can significantly impact your retirement savings. Many clients regret not starting earlier—don’t let that be you!
Let’s consider three investors with an 8% growth rate who make a $500 deposit per month:
Investor A started contributing and investing early in their career, accumulating for 40 years. By retirement, Investor A had an account value of $1.76 million.
Investor B started contributing and investing towards the middle of their career, accumulating for 30 years. By retirement, Investor B had an account value of $750,000.
Investor C started contributing and investing later in their career, accumulating for 20 years. By retirement, Investor C had an account value of $296,000.
Starting early can make a significant difference in your retirement savings. Don’t wait!
