If you’re an American of, well, any age over 18, the economy is probably top of mind for you right now.
We saw a huge downturn and then a partial rebound of the stock market amid President Donald Trump’s announcements of “Liberation Day” tariffs and 90-day delay of their implementation.
According to Gallup, over 60% of Americans participate in the stock market, with many investing for retirement. The younger you are, the more time you have for the market to fluctuate (and hopefully stabilize) before you’re ready to retire.
But for older Americans closer to retirement age, tanking investments in their retirement accounts are more dire. So, if you’re over 50, we want to hear how you’re feeling about your financial prospects amid the economic upheaval.
Are you now considering delaying your retirement date because of rising costs or shrinking investment accounts?
Are you anxiously checking your 401(k) or Roth IRA to see how they’re faring as the stock market rises and falls?
Or have you changed your mind about retiring in the US altogether and decided to take your cash abroad so it’ll last longer?
Whatever’s on your mind, we want to hear about it. Share your thoughts in the comments or via the anonymous form below.
