What Is 'Financial Literacy,' And Why Does It Matter? Elizabeth Bauer Contributor i Retirement I write about retirement policy from an actuary's perspective. Shutterstock Americans aren't saving enough for retirement. That's a trite statement. Precisely how great the shortfall is, is in dispute, of course, as is the question of what remedies, if any, should be undertaken. But what's the reason for this savings shortfall?  Discarding specifics like "no more traditional pension plans," there are three potential reasons, each taking some portion of the blame, and each interconnected with the other: Americans don't have the knowledge needed to save for retirement. Americans don't have the self-discipline to save for retirement. Americans don't have the excess funds to save for retirement. "Financial literacy" is the catch-all name for initiatives around education that, it's hoped, wi

July 19, 2018 Amid Rising Costs of Housing, Harris Introduces Bill to Provide Rent Relief WASHINGTON, D.C.  - With the cost of housing continuing to rise in California and across the country, U.S. Senator Kamala D. Harris today introduced legislation to provide rent relief for working families struggling to pay their bills. The  Rent Relief Act  would create a new, refundable tax credit to put more money in the pockets of families at a time when renters’ wages have remained stagnant and housing costs have increased rapidly. Harris was joined in the introduction by Senators Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), and Maggie Hassan (D-NH). “America’s affordable housing crisis has left too many families behind who struggle each month to keep a roof over their head,”  said Senator Harris . “This bill will ensure no family is priced out of the basic security of a place to live. Bolstering the economic security of working families would strengthen our country and increase

SEATTLE, July 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Rental options for black renters were far fewer than what Asian or white renters could choose from last year. Black renters could afford less than a third of the rentals that white or Asian renters could afford in 2017. A renter making the median black household incomei ($39,647) in 2017 could afford 16.2 percent of the available rentals on Zillow® without putting more than 30 percent of their pre-tax income toward housing costs, according to a  new Zillow analysis . If they spent 45 percent of their income on rent, they could afford 42 percent of the listed rentals – the same amount as a renter earning the median U.S. income ($59,250) could afford while only spending 30 percent of their income on rent. High rent burdens limit the financial freedom renters have.
