Pursuing the future you imagineWhat will your retirement look like? No matter how far or near you are to retirement, you probably have a picture in your head of what you’d like it to look like. How you want to live in retirement will help determine how much you need to save.
Travel to places you’vealways wanted to visit
Spend more time with friends and family
Split time between two homes
Have more quiet time at home or a busy
social calendar
Your retirement income
Where can your money come from after you retire, and will you have enough to live the
retirement you imagine?
How much does it take to retire?Many financial advisors recommend saving enough to cover 70% to 90% of your pre-retirement annual income to maintain your standard of living.
70%to
90%
Where your income in retirement can come fromSocial Security may not be enough. For many, Social Security will only replace a portion of income in retirement.
Many financial planners say you'll need between 70% and 90% of your pre-retirement income to live comfortably in retirement.
(Your workplace savings plan could be a good source for replacing that income.)

One of the easiest ways to save for your futureAfter you sign up, your employer automatically deducts the amount you specify from your paycheck and puts itinto your plan account. You don’t have to write a check or move money around yourself.
Consider increasing your contribution each year —even if it’s by just a little.
Financial professionals recommend that you gradually work your way up to saving 10-15% of your pay.
How pretax contributions work
On the plus side
Any growth is tax-deferred.
You get extra take-home pay.
You may pay lower taxes later.
Contributions are made before taxes are taken out.
You’re in charge
Save as much or as little as you like (up to the IRS maximum).
You can change your contribution rate anytime.
Invest in a way that suits your needs.
You choose the dollar amount or percentage you want to save and the types of investments you’d like to make. After all, it’s your future you’re saving for. But remember, we’re always here to help.
