Evaluating Your Retirement Readiness

To determine if you’re financially ready to start saving for retirement, consider these questions:
  • Do you have an established budget and at least six months of living expenses saved in an emergency fund?
  • Do you have money saved for short-term goals such as buying a home or paying for college expenses?
  • Are you free of large amounts of high-interest rate debt, such as credit card debt or personal loans?

If you can confidently answer “yes” to each of these questions, you’re ready to start planning for your upcoming retirement with help from our WPCU Retirement Solutions team.
