Don't Have Enough Saved for Retirement? Consider Retiring Abroad | Markets-and-stocks

Most Americans are behind on their savings. The median amount the average American family has saved for retirement is just $5,000, according to a recent report from the Economic Policy Institute . Even among those nearing retirement age (age 56-61), the median amount saved is a mere $17,000. Also, while the cost of living in the U.S. varies depending on the area of the country, it's generally becoming more expensive to cover the basic necessities. Once you consider the costs of healthcare, long-term care, and other expenses you may incur during retirement, it may be more expensive than you think to retire comfortably.

As President Donald Trump promised to unleash 'fire and fury' on North Korea,  a slightly-built, bearded TV evangelist bragged of his recent visit to the White House and warned of an up-coming ' nuclear winter .' Jim Bakker's studio audience whooped and cheered – before reaching deep into their pockets to buy 'Staying Alive' food - buckets full of freeze- dried products apparently capable of sustaining survivors through the Apocalypse. The charismatic pastor then made an impassioned plea for money to keep his ministry afloat – suggesting a year's supply of pancakes with a 30- year shelf life for an apparent bargain $550 or four cheaply published books for $40 to tide readers over through Armageddon. sell food buckets full of freeze- dried products , claiming the meals will keep followers alive after the Apocalypse" class="blkBorder img-share" /> Jim Bakker (pictured with wife Lori) uses his platform as a televangelist to sell f...
