Between March 19 and April 2, New Yorkers and other Times Square visitors will have the opportunity to participate in a digital poll by sending text messages to the billboard, selecting those aspects of their professional routines they would most like to “retire” today in order to focus on what matters most. As individuals text in responses to the billboard, polling results are tallied and displayed in real-time throughout the day.

The billboard installation further highlights the Merrill Lynch Wealth Management commitment to delivering personalized financial advice, along with a broad platform of financial solutions, to help clients plan for and experience retirement on their terms.
