According to a recent survey conducted by BlackRock, nearly 70% of respondents believe they need around $2 million to retire comfortably, but the reality is that almost no one is close to achieving this goal.
The statistics are staggering: 62% of those surveyed had less than $150,000 saved for retirement, a paltry sum compared to their desired amount.
