For all you data lovers the FED report on Economic Well Being 2017

You can get the gist of it from a 3 page executive summary. I tried to post the highlights but got an error. Here is the retirement highlight:

Many adults feel behind in their savings for retirement.Even among those who have some savings, people commonly lack financial knowledge and are uncomfortable making investment decisions

The Economic well being highlight provides the gist, although the bullet points make clear that whites are doing far better than blacks and Hispanics:

A large majority of individuals report that financially they are doing okay or living comfortably, and overall economic well-being has improved over the past five years. Even so, notable differences remain across various sub populations, including those of race, ethnicity,and educational attainment.
