More About Ad Council and AARP
Here's a message from Ad Council and AARP:
Approximately 2 in 5 households headed by people age 55-64—over 9 million households—have no retirement assets saved at all. Furthermore, while many companies will match their employees’ retirement plan contributions up to a certain amount, only three out of 10 Americans are contributing enough to maximize their company match—which means they’re essentially leaving free money on the table.
To help address this savings shortfall, AARP and the Ad Council have launched a Saving for Retirement campaign to empower people to take control of their financial futures with a free interactive online resource at AceYourRetirement.org. In just a few minutes, Avo provides a personalized action plan that highlights your top three action items—the simple, practical things you can do right now to save for retirement.
Saving for retirement doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. You’ve got what it takes to save, and AceYourRetirement.org can help you take the next step toward a more financially secure future.
