These 3 Mistakes Could Leave You Poor in Retirement
When you work hard your entire life, you want a comfortable retirement to look forward to -- and that means having enough money to pay your bills with enough left over for leisure and entertainment. But if you fall victim to these blunders, you could wind up in the opposite scenario -- miserable and cash-strapped for years on end.
Though Social Security will play a big role in your retirement finances, you can't expect to live on those benefits alone. The average senior today collects about $18,000 a year in Social Security, and chances are, you'll need a lot more annual income than that to maintain a decent lifestyle.
