Bill Losey Retirement Solutions

A recent study revealed that corporate America’s commitment to workers’ retirement plans, has dropped consistently over the last decade. The research found that the total retirement benefits provided to employees decreased from 7.8 percent of pay in 2002 to 6.9 percent of pay in 2008 and the value of the overall benefits declined from 9.4 percent to 8.6 percent of pay.

As more than half of all workers in the United States, 53 percent, have less than $25,000 in total savings and investments and with longer life expectancies and rising costs, especially for health care, it is critical that Americans understand the importance of taking matters into their own hands, stop solely relying on their employers to contribute to their retirement and start saving for their own future – RIGHT NOW!

America’s retirement strategist Bill Losey can provide expert insight and reveal his “5 Rules to Retirement Saving” – simple, effective steps, guaranteed to set people on the right path to a financially secure future.

I have included Losey’s “5 Rules to Retirement Saving” below.

5 Rules To Retirement Saving
By Bill Losey

1. The Automatic Rule
   Start saving money today. Even if it’s only a buck or two each pay period, savings is a habit you must start and stick with for the rest of your life. To improve your chance of savings success, automate the process. Have money withdrawn automatically from your paycheck or directly from your checking account each month. If you don’t want to think about saving, automation can take care of it for you.
2. The 1% Rule
   At a minimum save 1% of your earnings each payroll period. When you get a salary increase, add an extra percent to your savings and spend the rest. For example, when you get a 3% increase at work, save 1% and spend the other 2%. This way you’ll continually increase your savings rate while enjoying a higher standard of living.
3. The Time Rule
   When I meet with people in their 50’s and 60’s, the one regret they have is that they had wished they’d starting earlier in life. It’s never too early or too late to start saving for retirement. Time is your friend. It can work for you or against you. It’s your choice. Choose wisely.
4. The Spending Rule
   The less money you take out, the lower inflation is, and the higher return you earn on your money, the longer it will last. Conversely, the more money you take out, the higher inflation is, and the lower your return is, the shorter your nest egg will last.
5. The Most Important Rule
   The government and your company will not take care of you. Read, listen and learn about personal finance, investments and strategies. In the end, your financial well-being is your personal responsibility. Control what you can control.
