Selecting your International Savings Plan

Are you saving 10-15% of your salary? As a rule of thumb, you should put aside an amount equal to 10-15% of your income to be able to retire and continue with the same lifestyle that you enjoy while you are working.

The following factors indicate the importance of accumulating substantial personal retirement funds while you work:

1. Length of retirement is growing longer
   • In 1970 people lived on average seven years in retirement; in 2020, that number is expected to be an average of 20 years as life expectancy increases due to advances in medicine and healthier food
   • The day you stop working, you must have accumulated enough funds to live on for another 20 years
2. Number of retirees increasing much faster than the number of workers
   • In 1970 there were four people working for each retiree; in 2020, it is predicted to be two people working for each retiree
   • For this reason, government pensions will be sharply reduced

The above statistics are for industrialized countries, but the same trends apply to much of the rest of the world as well.
