Don’t underestimate health care expenses in retirement.
The earlier you start, the more time for your savings to grow.

The power of compound interest
Here’s an example of how compounding works: If you saved $3,000 per year, compounded at a 5% rate ofcompounded at a 5% rate of return, after 30 years, you could potentially have $213,743 tax-free dollars to use when you need it. For example to pay for qualifiedFor example, to pay for qualified medical expenses, Medicare premiums, or to supplement your retirement income.
Note: This example is a hypothetical illustration of compounding returns over time and is not intended to represent any particular investment or savings vehicle. The rates of return are constant nominal rates, compounded monthly. Actual investments will fluctuate in value. Contributions are assumed to be made at the beginning of the month. It does not take into consideration taxes or other applicable deductions, which will lower returns.
