Polls

Republicans against Trump: 64% of Americans disapprove of Trump’s handling of inflation, according to a new YouGov/CBS poll. The poll also shows Trump’s support among Independents is collapsing: just 32% approve, while a staggering 68% disapprove. 

 Independent, UK - About one-quarter of Americans over the age of 50 have been pushing back their retirement plans due to economic uncertainty and their financial readiness, a new survey finds.

The survey, conducted by ROI Rocket for F&G Annuities & Life, polled 2,000 U.S. adults aged 50 and older who are financial decision-makers and have at least $100,000 in financial savings. Of this group, 23 percent said they are delaying their planned retirement date — a figure that shot up 14 percent from 2024.

Half of the respondents cited economic volatility as the reason for considering pushing back their retirement. Last year, only 40 percent said the same, according to the survey.

Asked why they plan to push back their retirement plans, 44 percent of respondents said they were concerned about inflation, 34 percent said they were worried about a recession, the survey found. Meanwhile, 48 percent voiced they were worried they won't have enough money for retirement and 42 percent said they wanted a larger safety net.
