This survey indicates that all Americans are exhibiting uncertainty and, at worst, complete inaction when it comes to financial decision-making.

The survey also revealed persistent uncertainty about the economy, coupled with the belief that it is headed in the wrong direction, as a leading source of anxiety at every life stage about the ability to save for a comfortable retirement.
