I’ve been singing/songwriting for six years. As an artist, on a scale of 1 to 10, I would put saving for retirement at a 1, at a lowest priority. When people tell me to save for retirement as an artist, I insist that it’s not in the cards. Money for my music just comes here and there. It’s not really reliable, and as a bartender, I’m making tips, so it’s just not enough to save for retirement.
Well, right now, at 25, I’m just trying to get steady work, so that I can cover my own bills and everything. Right now, I’m just way too young to be thinking about things like that. It’s just not on the table right now.

Retirement USA is collecting personal stories about people’s fears and concerns for retirement. Washington isn’t paying attention to the retirement concerns of workers and retirees, so we need to speak out. The stories will help show lawmakers the reality of the retirement income crisis.
