Even among 55 to 65-year-olds, who are close to retirement, a quarter have nothing put away.?

?'Through countless consultations, I’ve observed a prevalent lack of awareness about the cost of retirement and a significant underestimation of how much needs to be saved.'
According to? GoBankingRates'? survey, workers aged between 35 and 44 are the least prepared for retirement. Some 35 percent of respondents in this age group had nothing saved for their later years.
By comparison, 33 percent of those aged 45 to 54 do not have a single dollar in their funds.?
This figure falls to 30 percent for the 25 to 34 cohort and 28 percent for those aged 18 to 24.?
Experts warned that many low-paid workers were missing out on key benefits from retirement funds - such as employee contributions and tax breaks.
