The pandemic has had a major impact on many people’s retirement savings and their overall plans for retirement. Recent research has shown that the “Great Resignation” may actually be the “Great Retirement” — of the 5 million people who left the U.S. labor force during the pandemic, 3.4 million are over 55 years old. About 1.5 million were early retirements and another 1 million were normal retirements. With so many people entering retirement — or getting ready to retire — it’s no wonder that our readers were interested in the retirement topics that could most impact their bottom lines, from details about the Social Security program to where to retire on a budget.
