3. Problems Facing Americans Today Debt Trap U.S. consumer debt has doubled over the past ten years, with the average debt at $18,700 per U.S. household [excluding mortgages]; bankruptcy filings are estimated to have topped 1.8 million in 2005. 1 Lack of Security If you died tomorrow, your family could face financial devastation. The average death claim paid by the insurance industry in 1999 was $15,130. 3 Poor Savings Habits Today, savings rates are at their lowest levels since the Great Depression. For the first time since 1933, savings rates fell into negative territory at -0.5% in 2005. Americans either dipped into savings or increased their borrowing. 2 Retirement Woes Most Americans retire in poverty. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 73.8% of Americans 65 and older retire on a combined income of private pension and Social Security of $10,000 or less a year. 4 1 Timothy Egan, “Debtors in Rush to Bankruptcy as Change Nears”, The New York Times Online, August 21, 2005. 2 Martin Crustinger, “Savings Rates at Lowest Levels Since 1933”, Associated Press, January 30, 2006. 3 Statistical Compilation of Annual Statement Information for Life/Health Insurance Companies in 1999* NAIC, 2000 4 Social Security Administration, 1996. Use for recruiting purposes only. Rising Cost of Living If you and your spouse earn $100,000 a year and want to retire in 18 years, with average inflation of 4%, you will need a little more than $200,000 a year to equal your current income of $100,000. Without the proper financial knowledge and tools, many families have given up on their dreams and feel that their financial future is hopeless.
