The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau released a report “Retirement Security and Financial Decision-making” examining the resources and spending of people who retired between 1992 and 2014. The report concludes that almost one-half of retirees are not able to maintain the same spending level five years after retiring. Those who could not maintain the same level of spending often significantly reduced their expenses within those first five years.
