​What’s the cost of waiting?

Savings

Do you have good intentions when it comes to saving money? We all do. Unfortunately, good intentions are not enough. Saving money and keeping it saved doesn’t happen by accident. It takes planning and discipline. Your savings plan should be consistent and something you are comfortable with.

If you haven't started saving for the future, what's holding you back? The longer you wait to save, the harder it will be and the more you will have to save to achieve your goals. That’s the cost of waiting.

The cost of waiting

  • Ashley and Jenna are both 25.
  • Ashley starts saving $200 per month now. Jenna waits until she’s 30 to start saving the same amount.

Assuming a 5 percent rate of return, Ashley’s savings will have grown to more than $306,000* by the time she’s 65. Jenna’s will have grown to just $228,000*. That’s a $78,000 difference. And Ashley only contributed $12,000 more to her savings.

The cost of waiting just five years is $78,000! Consider your goals for your future. Remember, regardless of where you are in life, it is never too early or too late to begin saving.

*This example is hypothetical and is for illustrative purposes only and does not reflect any savings or investment vehicle. This example also assumes a 5 percent annualized rate of return.
