Even though it may be decades away, it is never too soon to plan for your retirement. Millions of people reach their supposedly "golden years" impoverished because they failed to plan. It is not a secret that the financially stressed Social Security will only provide a small part of your retirement needs. In addition, many of today’s jobs do not provide retirement benefits such as Pension Plans or 401(k).

 

Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA) permits individuals to subtract a portion of their earnings from taxable income and to contribute these amounts to IRA accounts offered by banks, savings institutions, insurance companies, and mutual fund organizations. There are many types of IRA and many other investment vehicles that may be appropriate to you based on each personal circumstance.
