Did you know that nearly 80% of American workers say that they are living paycheck-to paycheck? And it’s not merely those earning low wages who are struggling – almost 10% of Americans with salaries $100K or more agree. Although the economy recovered from the great recession and the 4% unemployment rate is the lowest it has been in years, employees are still financially stressed. Today’s employees want to make their money do more so they aren’t living in this perpetual paycheck-to-paycheck cycle. But with stagnant wage growth, rising cost of living and student loan debt – their money just doesn’t do as much as it used to. As a result, Financial Flexibility is the new version of the traditional American Dream. Employers have a role in helping their employees achieve this type of Financial Flexibility.
