Quick Hit: Couples Save More Than Singles
Apparently, couples have significantly more saved for retirement than singles. Personally, I don’t think it takes a rocket scientist to figure out that dual income = more money = more saved. Also, factor in that a woman makes $0.77 to every dollar a man makes, and you have a big reason why single women without advanced degrees don’t have enough money for retirement, as this article states. So, I didn’t see this study as particularly ground-breaking, but I’m interested to hear what you think.
Actually, you’ve got it backwards…the title of the article is “Singles Have Significantly Less Saved for Retirement Than Couples.”
You are correct. Where is my head today? I fixed it. 🙂
