Ther have been a rash of articles on Yahoo about retirement and for a laugh I often read them. Here's the latest one
retirement-saving-through-the-ages: Personal Finance News from Yahoo! Finance
I love sentences like the following:
"Think about it this way: If you're 25 years old and you want to save up $1 million by the age of 65, you'd only have to invest $85 a month at a 12 percent annual return."
12% annual return, why even do the calculation. When I see such artlcles and financial advisers using numbers like 4% I'll have some respect for them.
