The Longevity Question in Retirement

As shocking as it may sound, most Americans don't have an active retirement plan. It's even more depressing when you realize that a significant portion of the population is clueless about how long they are likely to live. According to Adrian, knowing your average life expectancy can help you understand how much you would need to retire comfortably. This could also give you an idea of the length of time for which you should prepare financially and mentally.


When planning for longevity, understand that the longer you live, the more money you need and the more years your retirement savings need to cover. This explains why Roshan believes we must reframe how we answer the retirement question. Rather than approaching it from a savings perspective, focus on how long you expect to live and whether your retirement funds will last the rest of your life.
