Your AARP
NEW HELP WITH RETIREMENT
AARP expands programs to make planning and living your post-work life easier
AARP has long focused on the needs of people who are saving and planning for their retirements or who are making financial adjustments in the years after they have stopped full-time work. Over the years, we’ve developed several programs that can help. In 2025, we will expand that effort with some new initiatives—and by tweaking some of our existing programs—to make planning for and managing your retirement easier than ever.
Here’s a look at some of what AARP has planned.
AARP is enhancing its Retirement Calculator. The changes will help people track income sources in their retirement portfolio, including savings, investments and Social Security. Input some of your personal data to find out how much work you have to do to retire comfortably—or how to keep your retirement on track.
Keep a lookout in March for a revamped Social Security Resource Center. The revised site will help consumers navigate the often-complicated world of Social Security by giving them access to information that is most relevant and providing updated content to help them understand their retirement benefits. In addition, new tools and resources will help people plan and manage their retirement finances by providing insight into their expected Social Security benefits.

AARP will launch the AARP CA$H Hack Challenge on March 31. The six-week program is designed to help people save more and spend less through novel and easy “CA$H Hacks.” Each week, participants will focus on one area of their finances and make small changes to help achieve their goals over the long term. They will get practical—maybe even surprising—spending and savings hacks, and perhaps have some fun along the way.
The CA$H Hack Challenge includes easy-to-follow videos, insightful content and articles, and other resources and tools to help participants complete the challenge and achieve their financial goals.
