Don't delay. Waiting can cost you.
The sooner you start saving, the more time you have to contribute and build earnings on your savings. Contributions and earnings can really add up over time. For example, if you contribute $50 per paycheck from age 25 until age 65, your balance is likely to be much higher than if you started saving at age 55. When you start later, you need to save even more, just to catch-up. Our Cost of Delay calculator will show you how much more you'd need to save, or how much less your account might be worth, if you delay enrolling.
Once enrolled, you can:
- Manage your account online or with the MissionSquare Retirement mobile app.
- Discuss your retirement goals with your local Retirement Plans Specialist.
- For a more holistic view when facing a major financial decision, consultations with a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM are also available.
