Saving at 2.4 Percent Rates Seen Driving Retirement Push
The Commerce Department reports the U.S. savings rate fell to a record low of 2.4 percent in 1999. Experts blame barriers to saving and high debt, while advocates urge small steps such as $20 weekly or $25 monthly investments, tax refunds placed in CDs or mutual funds, and retirement planning tools to replace a portion of pre-retirement income.
