Get StartedWhether you're early in your career or experienced, plan now so you can retire sooner.
Get StartedIf you have saved 25 times your annual expenses, you could retire at 50. A safe withdrawal rate of 4% helps make your money last.
The more you save now, the sooner you can retire. With the magic of compounding, you will keep earning interest on interest.
An asset allocation of 60/40 means you have 60% of your assets in stocks/equities and 40% in bonds. "Age in bonds" is a good starting place to decide how much you should have in bonds.
Money saved in 401(k), 403(b) or traditional IRA accounts will not be taxed till you retire. They money that would be taxed now can instead grow over decades.
Money earned by investing in Roth IRA or Roth 401(k) could be withdrawn without paying any taxes. This is great if you expect to be in a higher tax bracket when you retire.
I Bonds can grow tax free for 30 years and can protect you against inflation. They are backed by the US Government and minimize risk.
