The U.S. retirement landscape has changed dramatically over the past few decades.

Replacement rates for Social Security are declining due to the increase in the “full retirement age.”1 Income is becoming less predictable, thanks in part to new employment models. Health care costs are increasing, and so is longevity—which means workers today don’t just have more responsibility for saving for their own retirements, they also have to make those savings last, on average, for longer periods of time. In short, the new retirement landscape makes planning for retirement significantly more challenging than it had been in the past.
