The youngest and the oldest working-age Americans have the most confidence in their ability to retire comfortably, according to a new survey from OneAmerica. The first-time survey, which OneAmerica intends to repeat to track data, identified a “confidence donut” for those between the ages of 30 and 50.
Out of 6,360 participants to the online poll, 44% of retirement plan participants between the ages of 20 and 30 and 45% of those older than 50 reported being “very confident” or “confident” in their plans to maintain their current lifestyle in retirement. Only 37% of those 30 to 40 years old and 35% of those 40 to 50 could say the same.
