IRA Planning Not a Priority Survey Says

According to TIAA-CREF’s annual IRA survey, only 15% of adults have allotted two or more hours to planning an IRA investment.  25% of the adults surveyed spent this amount of time selecting a restaurant while 21% allocated this time to buying a TV and 16% allocated this time to buying a tablet.

TIAA_CREF reports that only one in five Americans are currently contributing to an IRA.
