3 Did You Knows - Q4 Edition

We are back with another edition of 3 Did You Knows for Q4!

  •  Fifty years ago Gerald Ford signed into law the Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). While federal, state, and local laws do not require establishments to provide retirement benefits, ERISA established standards in case they do.*

 

  • More than three-quarters of Americans (77%) have a financial regret, according to a new Bankrate survey. Americans are most likely to say not saving for retirement early enough is their top financial regret (22%), followed by not saving enough for emergencies (18%), among others.**

  • According to a recent study, over 81% of Americans are concerned that Social Security funds will be significantly diminished by 2035 with 73% claim that the depletion of Social Security funds will directly impact their financial planning and retirement strategies.***
