Are you more concerned about losing weight than about saving for retirement? According to a new survey, Kiwis are spending more time worrying about how to lose a few more kilos than they are by the concept of not having at least $100k in their retirement fund. And 57 per cent of men surveyed said weight loss was also their main goal, with only 19 per cent having retirement planning at the top of their to-do list. Apparently, 46 per cent of Kiwis would rather learn a new language or take up a new instrument than sort out their retirement as well.
