Retirement


by Riley

When thinking about retirement you have to decide if u are going to save for your retirement or get a pension. A pension plan is a sum of money added up during your employment period, these payments are drawn to help with life after work. A pension is either a “defined benefit plan” or a “defined contribution plan”, a defined benefit plan is a fixed sum is paid regularly to a person, a defined contribution plan is a fixed sum of money invested then becomes available at retirement age. Pensions should not be confused with severance pay. Saving for retirement could just be saving with a bank with a certain fixed number or investment rate of whatever you decide.
