After a bruising two years, Americans are rethinking how long they'll need to work and how much money they'll need to retire comfortably.
Adults in the U.S. say they’ll need $1.27 million to retire comfortably, up from the $1.25 million last year, according to Northwestern Mutual's 2023 Planning & Progress study, which surveyed 2,740 people over 18. The age they plan to work until has also ticked up, to 65 from 64 last year and 62.6 in 2021.
