true
false

Explanation:

• Pregunta 9: Data from U.S. financial surveys shows a large share of Americans have insufficient retirement savings, with many near retirement having little to no wealth set aside, so the claim is false.
• Pregunta 10: High levels of consumer debt (e.g., credit cards, long-term loans) require ongoing payments with interest, which diverts income that could be used for savings and wealth-building, making the statement true.

Answer:

Pregunta 9: False
Pregunta 10: True
