Boomers' Concern about Retirement Doubles from 2001, According to MetLife Mature Market Institute Comparison Study

As the first wave of Baby Boomers reaches age 59 1/2, the first year they are eligible to make tax-free withdrawals from their retirement plans, many are taking their first real look at retirement and a good portion are not happy, according to the MetLife Mature Market Institute®.

A new study, The MetLife Survey of American Attitudes Toward Retirement: What's Changed?, shows Baby Boomers are increasingly anxious about retirement. Conducted in 2005 with Zogby International, the study set out to compare data from research conducted in 2001. The new study reports that the number of Boomers 'worried about retirement' has doubled, with younger members, ages 41 to 49, more likely to voice concern.
