Wisconsinites not saving enough for retirement according to survey

WISCONSIN - A new survey shows the vast majority of older Wisconsinites don't think they saved enough for retirement.

The survey of 1,000 working, registered voters ages 45 and older residing in Wisconsin was fielded for AARP by Precision Opinion Research in early September 2014 and has a sampling error of +/- 3.1 percent, according to AARP. It was released in January.

Eighty-eight percent of people surveyed said they hadn't saved enough. AARP Wisconsin Federal Advocacy Director Lisa Lamkins believes one reason that's happening is because too few employers offer a workplace savings plan.
