受疫情影响,三分之一的美国人计划延迟退休

疫情给个人财务敲响了警钟。

爱德华·琼斯公司(Edward Jones)和老年事务管理公司Age Wave发布的一项最新研究显示,受新冠疫情影响,三分之一的美国人计划延迟退休。

约6,900万美国人称,新冠疫情造成的压力将迫使他们延迟退休,比去年的6,800万有所增加。

如今,美国就业市场刚刚开始复苏。而在去年3月和4月,美国的失业率创下了自二战以来的最高水平。

在新冠疫情期间,失业率和储蓄减少将对人们未来几年的生活产生影响,并且已经影响了人们的退休计划。

调查发现,只有41%的女性每个月有退休储蓄,而男性的比例为58%。此外,调查还发现有56%的男性认为其退休储蓄可以提供保障,而女性只有40%。虽然在这方面,男性和女性的比例都有所提高,但依旧落后于疫情爆发之前的水平。

对于50岁以上达到退休年龄的人们来说,一笔意外的巨额开支可能会影响他们的退休计划。研究发现,在这个群体中,有66%的受访者表示医疗保健和长期护理成本是他们在经济上担心的一个重要问题。

调查称,即将退休的人群比退休人员受到的负面影响更为严重,前者有44%表示在经济上受到了负面影响,而退休人员的比例只有22%。

尽管如此,退休人员同样因为疫情而面临经济压力,许多退休人员称医疗保健和长期护理成本以及意外开支是他们担心的主要问题。

尽管新冠疫情对许多人的退休计划产生了影响,但依旧有人保持乐观。

70%的美国人认为疫情给个人财务敲响了警钟,33%的计划退休人员现在开始增加退休储蓄,其中拉丁裔美国人和千禧一代增加退休储蓄的比例最高。

在2020年年底,约有2,200万美国人已经停止了每月退休金供款。研究显示,到2021年3月,该数字减少到1,400万人。(财富中文网)

One out of every three Americans who plan to retire is set to delay his or her retirement as a result of the pandemic, according to a new study by Edward Jones and Age Wave.

Around 69 million Americans, up from 68 million last year, said strains from the pandemic will force them to retire later than expected.

The survey comes as Americans are just beginning to recover from levels of job losses not seen since World War II in March and April of last year.

The repercussions of unemployment and lost savings during the pandemic will affect people for years to come and are already affecting plans to retire.

The survey found that only 41% of women are saving for retirement each month compared with 58% of men. It also found that 56% of men felt secure in their retirement savings compared with just 40% of women. Although these figures have improved for both men and women, they still lag behind pre-pandemic levels.

For people ages 50 and above who are reaching retirement age, any large, unexpected expense could affect their retirement plans. Among this group, 66% said health care and long-term-care expenses were a big financial worry, the study found.

These pre-retirees were more negatively affected than retirees, the survey said, with 44% of pre-retirees reporting a negative financial impact compared with 22% of retirees.

That said, retirees also faced financial stress owing to the pandemic, with many citing health care and long-term-care costs and unexpected expenses among their top concerns.

Despite the wrench COVID-19 has thrown in many people’s plan for retirement, some have remained optimistic.

Seventy percent of Americans viewed the pandemic as a financial wake-up call, and 33% of those planning to retire are now contributing more to their retirement savings, with Hispanic Americans and millennials most likely to do so.

At the end of 2020, around 22 million Americans had stopped making monthly retirement contributions. In March 2021, that number dropped to 14 million, according to the study.
