The video is a TEDx Video (The Retirement Gap) presented by Kevin Bracker, finance professor at Pittsburg State University in Kansas. It takes only 17 minutes for Professor Bracker, in a no-nonsense format, to offer not only solid advice about how to build your retirement savings, but also to explain why individuals are not saving enough for retirement and what can be done about the problem.
In a world where reaching 100 years of age will be the ‘norm” we know that about 40% of people in the US have no retirement accounts, and have less than one year of income available to meet their future retirement needs.
The powerful tools offered by Prof. Bracker are: why starting to save as early as possible for retirement is critical; the power of compounding interest; the value of indexed mutual funds; using the value of the Roth IRA and something called “behavioral nudges.”
The 17 minutes you take to watch the video could by the most valuable time you spend this month.
