Deciding How Much to Contribute to the Plan
Planning now for your retirement—years before you are near retirement age—is essential. To help with your planning, answer these questions:
- What are your projected cash flow needs at retirement?
- How much have you currently saved or invested, and what will it grow to by the time you retire?
- How much more do you need to invest?
- Where are you going to get the rest of the money you need for retirement?
