flag Median American has $955 saved for retirement, raising alarm over financial security.

flag A new study finds the median American worker has only $955 saved for retirement in plans like 401(k)s, raising alarms about financial security amid rising job losses from automation and AI. flag While plan holders have higher savings—$40,000 median and $179,082 average—the findings highlight a growing retirement crisis, especially as Social Security faces long-term sustainability issues due to decades of borrowing. flag Experts warn that without expanded private savings initiatives and systemic reforms, millions could face financial instability in old age, with limited alternatives to state support.
