Finances 50+

AARP North Dakota will host a virtual session on retirement this fall with a panel of retirees.

Across generations, many adults are grasping for financial security. Join us for a panel discussion on the challenges four generations – Gen Z, Millennials, Gen X, and Boomers – face saving for their futures. Panelists will share common experiences and explore solutions that could help all save more for the future. Speakers include:

Work and Save for the future

While Social Security is a critical piece of the puzzle, it is not enough to depend on. The average Social Security benefit for a 65+ Ohio family is only about $19,185 per year, even though these families spend over $23,076 a year on food, utilities, and health care alone.

It’s National Savings Day – the one day a year set aside to remind us of the importance of saving and reflect on our own savings habits. At AARP, we don’t need a national holiday to remind us just how vital saving for the future is. We know that saving for retirement is one of the most important things you can do for your future, and we work 365 days a year to provide resources to help you plan and grow your savings. But, we can’t do it alone. That’s why this National Savings Day, we are looking to New York Governor Kathy Hochul to sign A3213-A/S5395-A, which would strengthen New York’s Secure Choice Savings Program and make saving for the future easier for everyone.

The FREE Montgomery County, MD, 50+ Employment Expos will continue to be virtual events. Registration is free and required to participate. Click HERE or visit virtualexpos.accessjca.org.
