You have so much to loose and don't even know it! A simple study done by LIMRA Secure Retirement Institute showed:

  • Effects of simple inflation on the average social security benefit over a 20 years period was startling.
  • According to the research a basic 1% inflation rate swallows up $34,406 of retirees benefits.
  • However, if the rate were to increase to 3% the shortfall is MORE than $117,000!

This is just one simple example of how inflation is hurting retirement. What we don't look into is each year your retirement account has a market loss or adjustment you have to make up for the overall loss, and gains to get back to that mark of value. This means you MUST earn MORE than originally and depending upon the adjustment even more than expected. What we realize is that that future push to earn gains are based on future levels of inflation along with your earnings staying the same on average along with the amount your consistently putting in pre-tax dollars is worth less in the future.
