Published Updated 2 Min Read

Two-thirds of middle-income Americans are saving less than 5% of their annual income for retirement with nearly a quarter saving nothing at all, according to research from Limra, an industry-funded research group.

The research looked at American workers earning $40,000-$99,999. More than eight in 10 (85%) are saving less than 10% of their income for retirement, the study finds.
