Save to Retire

Hashtags of the Day: #Save2Retire, #ASW2021

At Global Credit Union, we know It’s never too soon to prepare for retirement. In fact, the earlier you begin to prepare for your retirement, the easier it will be to save. Did you know that very few United States citizens have a plan for retirement savings that will fully cover their desired lifestyle? For this reason, on day three of America Saves week we will focus on the importance of setting aside time to understand your retirement needs and making a plan to meet them.

Here is how to get started on saving to retire:

Step into financial action by taking the America Saves pledge or re-pledging.

Check out the America Saves Week resources to create your individual retirement action plan.

Connect with your employee to learn about the retirement savings options they currently offer. Also, check out the Global Retirement and Investment Services to learn more.

Schedule consistent automatic contributions to the retirement account of your choosing.

Always remember, you are never too early or too late to start planning for retirement. For more information on Global Credit Union’s retirement services, please visit www.globalcu.org/investments/
