            Obama: Hard-Working Americans Should Retire With Dignity

   by VOA News

   U.S. President Barack Obama says he is committed to middle-class
   economics and to ensuring that all hard-working Americans get the
   secure and dignified retirement they deserve.

   [1]In his weekly address Saturday, Obama said most financial advisers
   are good at prioritizing their clients' futures, but there are some who
   direct their clients toward bad investments in return for backdoor
   payments kickbacks and hidden fees.

   He said that is why earlier in the week he urged the U.S. Labor
   Department to update rules and require that retirement advisers put
   their clients' best interests above their own financial interests.

   The president noted that middle-class families cannot afford to lose
   their hard-earned savings after a lifetime of work.
