State of Your Retirement Savings

I personally enjoy learning about the state of Americans' finances. Here is an article describing our saving or lack of saving for retirement. Andrea Coombes covers many topics in this article.
Fully 57% of people who earn less than $50,000 said they can’t afford to both pay their bills and save for retirement, compared with 35% of people who earn $50,000 or more. Meanwhile, 59% of those surveyed said their top, day-to-day money worry is paying the monthly bills—that’s’ up from 52% who said that in 2012.
