Single women face unique challenges when planning for retirement, so I asked an expert for help. Plus, women are often put in a caregiving role, which means time off from work — and not contributing regularly to retirement funds.

The US is in the midst of a "freight recession," meaning there's fewer trucks delivering goods around the country.
