Description

The rising cost of living is pushing more Americans to withdraw from their retirement savings, with hardship withdrawals from 401(k) plans more than doubling in recent years.

Experts stress the importance of emergency savings, recommending at least three months of essential expenses, to prevent premature dipping into retirement funds.
