Why starting early matters

Retirement savings grow through contributions and compounding, so the number of years matters as much as the amount. Someone who starts a few years earlier can end up with a much larger balance than someone who saves more later.

Try changing your retirement age or starting age in the retirement calculator to see the difference. Also test a lower return, such as 5%, for a more cautious estimate.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 4% rule?

It is a common guideline that says you can withdraw about 4% of your balance in the first year of retirement. It is a rough rule of thumb, not a guarantee.

How is a Roth IRA different from a traditional IRA?

Roth contributions are made with money that has already been taxed, and qualified withdrawals can be tax-free. Contribution limits and rules change, so check the current IRS guidance for your situation.
