Americans are adjusting - upwards - when it comes to their plans to retire in comfort.
Most people believe they will need to save $1.5 million to see them through their golden years - a $200,000 jump from last year, according to a survey by financial services company Northwestern Mutual. But respondents seemed unfazed by their upward savings adjustment; in fact, the percentage of those who worried they would outlive their savings decreased year-on-year.
