US women have saved only a third of men's retirement savings, potentially causing a crisis for female retirees.

A Prudential Financial survey showed that US women have saved only a third of the amount men have set aside for retirement, potentially causing a crisis for female retirees. Men have saved a median of $157,000, while women have only saved $50,000. Women face more challenges in saving for retirement due to factors such as inflation, housing prices, and changes in tax policies. Additionally, women are three times more likely to prioritize providing for their families and children over saving for retirement.
