90% of women investors say they're 'on track' to achieve money goals — but most share a common regret, survey finds

Women who invest began at an average age of 31, but most wish they had started putting money in the market earlier, a recent survey said.

Nearly all — 90% — of the women investors surveyed said they’re “on the right track” to achieve their financial goals, according to the survey, by Charles Schwab, an investment and financial services firm.

However, 85% share a common regret — they said they wish they had started investing at an earlier age, the survey said.

When the age is broken down by generation, Schwab found that millennials began investing at age 27, on average, Gen Xers’ average starting age was 31, and baby boomers started at an average age of 36.
