2 hours agoManaging savings, homeownership during first retirement year
Advisers warn that retirees frequently spend too freely in their go-go years, when travel and leisure costs peak. The latest Consumer Expenditure Survey from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) found that average annual spending for adults ages 65 to 74 was $65,149, dropping nearly 20% by age 75. As a result, overspending early can strain savings meant to last decades, while excessive caution can lead to missing out on achievable goals.
