Best High Tech Stocks To Buy For 2019

tags:NGD,VPV,KMM,HAWK,FRME,

All working Americans need retirement savings, regardless of gender. But the need is particularly strong for women, since they have a tendency to live longer than their male counterparts. As such, they're also more likely to require paid care at some point -- as a spouse may not be around to provide care.

It's therefore unsettling to learn that women are only saving about half as much as men for the future. In a recent Student Loan Hero study, women had an average of $45,614 socked away for retirement, whereas men had $90,189. That sort of gap could put women at a severe disadvantage later in life.
