The Daily Money
 
Friday, July 31

We made it to Friday, Daily Money readers. Brett Molina here to wrap up another work week with some more Money and Tech headlines.

It's not a topic you would expect to generate a lot of buzz, but a recent column has sparked debate over the value of 401(k) accounts. So, we ask the question: does it still make sense to save into a 401(k)?

A recent survey found many Americans are underestimating how much money they will need in retirement. On average, participants said they think workers need about 67% of their pre-retirement income. However, experts believe it should be between 70% and 85%. 

Finally, investing isn't exactly the most romantic subject to broach with your partner. But getting your spouse interested in investing could pay big dividends in the future. Here's how to make that approach.

Scroll down for more headlines, and enjoy your weekend.
