Fidelity manages 51 million retirement accounts, so 485,000 seven figure accounts is not all that impressive. It is less than 1% of all accounts. The average Fidelity 401K balance for the 3rd quarter of 2025 was $144,400, far less than one million. It is my understanding from various sources that 91% of retirees have less than $500,000 in retirement savings. The suggestions in the article are pretty good though. Hopefully more will follow good suggestions and be able to retire more comfortably than social security alone.
