Financial Confidence? It's Just Good Planning, Boomers Say
- Baby Boomers may have hit the jackpot money-wise, but many attribute their wealth to financial planning and professional advice rather than good timing.
The article from Kiplinger discusses a survey conducted by the Insured Retirement Institute (IRI) which reveals that Baby Boomers feel more financially confident due to diligent retirement planning.

It also notes that while many Boomers are saving adequately, there's a notable concern about outliving their savings, with 42% worried about this issue.

Additionally, it points out the need for ongoing education and adjustments in financial strategies as circumstances change.
