But it is never too soon to begin serious financial planning for your retirement years. Planning for the future means saving today. Experts predict that you will need approximately 90 percent of your pre-retirement income to maintain your current standard of living once you retire.
Many factors make that standard difficult to attain.
We're living longer, and the promise of Social Security diminishes with each generation. That's where TIAA-CREF can help. The University's 11-percent contribution to your basic retirement plan is generous in itself. All voluntary contributions to your TIAA-CREF fund are deducted before taxes are taken out. With each contribution, more of your earned income accrues interest.
