More than 27% of those working or recently unemployed already have taken withdrawals from their retirement accounts. And atop the 25% of households who hadn’t been contributing before the pandemic, 18% now are contributing less. That’s according to a mid-May online survey of 1,326 U.S. adults conducted by YouGov for Bankrate.com. “The runaway culprit is loss of income, cited nearly twice as often as the next most common reason of keeping more cash on hand,” said Greg McBride, Bankrate chief financial

Pulling off two scintillating wins to breach the top 4, the side was quick to show everyone why they have been held in such high stature this season.However, the team finally saw its piquant touch come to an end with the side thumped and dismissed from sights by Wolfsburg. In what was an unprecedented result, Bayer Leverkusen slipped t a sordid 4- defeat, a result which left not only the side’s supporters but the league’s ardent followers in awe as well. What was spectacular was not only the shambolic way in which Bayer Leverkusen’s defence collapsed by the dreary attacking show put on by them as well.
