Abstract

The purpose of this study is to provide an initial examination of the first three waves of HRS in terms of non-housing net worth by gender, education, race, religion, income, and age. The longitudinal data that is available for a sample of those who are nearing retirement or in retirmenet allows a picture of their financial condition to be drawn. Statistical analysis indicates that there is a difference in non-housing net worth by demographic characteristics and material status for each wave of data.
