    Description

    The statistic shows the average retirement account balances of Americans between 50 and 64 as of November 2010, by pension plan. On average, Americans from the bottom 25th percentile (0 - 10,800 U.S. dollars) had 281 U.S. dollars in a KEOGH pension plan, a tax deferred pension plan available to self-employed individuals or unincorporated businesses for retirement purposes. The same income group had, on average, 9,160 U.S. dollars in IRA (individual retirement account) pension plans. Additional info: Retirement saving It is never too early to start thinking about retirement. Plans and provisions for our twilight years often get put off as we deal with life’s more pressing demands, and with solid economic recovery still far from guaranteed, savings plans have been impacted. Despite this, those who wish to enjoy the golden years of their life should save early and save often. There are a number of saving strategies and a number of possibilities available for retirement saving, and this can seem quite daunting and difficult to figure out at first. The U.S. Department of Labor recommends determining net worth to be a good place to start i.e., the total value of assets minus the value of debts. Having ascertained this, and judging by your age, you can start planning how to get the most out of your retirement savings. You should contemplate where you want to be and how you’re going to get there. If you have age on your side, you can afford to be aggressive and put money into riskier funds. If your fund loses in value, you have time to let it grow. However, if you are getting close to retirement, more intensive and low-risk saving methods are recommended.

    Description

    In 2023, the average annual gross pension in Italy amounted to some 21,400 euros. Compared to 2015, the average pension income increased by around 4,000 euros. An expensive social security system A social security system is meant to help individuals and families dealing with unexpected accidents and losses, invest in health and education, and protect the elderly. The Italian social security system is public and based on compulsory contributions made by taxpayers and managed by the state. Depending on several factors, ranging from the average age of retirement to the generosity of the benefits paid, social security can be very costly for the public administration. In 2022, in Italy there were over 16 million pensioners, defined as individuals who receive at least one type of pension benefit. The public expenditure for pensions reached almost 322 billion euros, which amounted to approximately 16 percent of the country’s GDP. The increasing popularity of pension funds Alongside the public social security system, pension funds based on voluntary contributions by private members can provide a safety net for those who want to receive a supplementary benefit. Despite being far from reaching the values registered in other countries such as the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Germany in terms of assets, the popularity of pension funds is growing in Italy. In fact, the value of voluntary pension funds’ contributions in Italy increased from 6.8 billion euros in 2007 to 11.3 billion euros in 2019.

Description

The statistic shows the average retirement account balances of Americans between 50 and 64 as of November 2010, by pension plan. On average, Americans from the bottom 25th percentile (0 - 10,800 U.S. dollars) had 281 U.S. dollars in a KEOGH pension plan, a tax deferred pension plan available to self-employed individuals or unincorporated businesses for retirement purposes. The same income group had, on average, 9,160 U.S. dollars in IRA (individual retirement account) pension plans. Additional info: Retirement saving It is never too early to start thinking about retirement. Plans and provisions for our twilight years often get put off as we deal with life’s more pressing demands, and with solid economic recovery still far from guaranteed, savings plans have been impacted. Despite this, those who wish to enjoy the golden years of their life should save early and save often. There are a number of saving strategies and a number of possibilities available for retirement saving, and this can seem quite daunting and difficult to figure out at first. The U.S. Department of Labor recommends determining net worth to be a good place to start i.e., the total value of assets minus the value of debts. Having ascertained this, and judging by your age, you can start planning how to get the most out of your retirement savings. You should contemplate where you want to be and how you’re going to get there. If you have age on your side, you can afford to be aggressive and put money into riskier funds. If your fund loses in value, you have time to let it grow. However, if you are getting close to retirement, more intensive and low-risk saving methods are recommended.
