Many people work hard their entire lives with the hope of retiring comfortably, yet some end up financially struggling despite decades of effort.One major reason is poor financial planning.
Without a clear strategy for saving, investing, and managing expenses, even a steady income can fail to build lasting wealth.+See more details
Relying solely on a paycheck without creating multiple streams of income often leaves retirees vulnerable.
Another reason is living beyond your means. Overspending, accumulating debt, or maintaining an expensive lifestyle can prevent savings from growing. Even small, consistent financial missteps over time can erode wealth.
Additionally, lack of investment knowledge contributes significantly. Money left idle in low-interest accounts or poorly managed investments loses value over time, especially when inflation is considered.
Some people also fail to plan for unexpected events. Medical emergencies, family obligations, or economic downturns can quickly drain savings if there is no contingency fund.
Others may underestimate retirement expenses, assuming that life will slow down and costs will drop, when in reality, healthcare and daily living costs often increase with age.
Lastly, not starting early enough is a key factor. Time is a powerful ally for wealth growth through compounding. Those who delay saving or investing may find themselves with insufficient resources later in life.
In short, retiring broke is rarely due to laziness—it usually stems from poor planning, lack of discipline, and underestimating the realities of life and retirement.+See more details
