Americans' confidence in their ability to retire is hovering at the lowest level in two decades, according to a survey released Tuesday by the Employee Benefit Research Institute. Just 14 percent of respondents reported being "very confident" that they will have enough money to live comfortably in retirement –- down from a peak of 27 percent in 2007.
Just 58 percent of workers said that they or their spouses are saving for retirement -- a decline from nearly two-thirds in 2009. The survey, conducted in January, was based on interviews with 1,003 workers and 259 retirees.
