Money Poll #9: Retirement Savings Rate

A few weeks back, I ran a poll on retirement savings accounts which revealed that more than 9 out of 10 respondents are saving for retirement through either an employer-sponsored plan or an IRA of some sort (or both). This week I'm interested in learning even more about my readers' retirement savings habits, which brings us to the question of the week... "What percentage of your annual income do you save for retirement?" For the purposes of this poll, feel free to include matching funds from your employer. For example, in my case, I get a dollar-for-dollar match of up to 5% of my annual salary (which I take full advantage of) and I'm also kicking in an additional 9% (we bump this up by 1% every year when I get a raise). So that means that we're saving 14% + 5% match = 19%. With that said, please hop on over to the retirement savings rate poll to participate and/or check out the results.
