Averages of retirement savings naturally differ according to the group under consideration. The statistics most usually cited in the U.S. are as follows:
An average American family, headed by a 43-year-old, has retirement savings of $18,750.
An average family headed by members close to retirement (age 55 and up) has retirement savings of $60,000.
Consumers between the ages of 41 and 54 have average retirement savings of $30,000.
Consumers have average total household personal retirement savings of $35,000.
Consumers who save in a 401k have an average 401k account balance of $80,000.
