Americans are prepared to work longer in order to save enough for retirement, according to a survey by Wells Fargo & Co.

About 76 percent of respondents said it’s more important to reach a specific dollar amount before retiring, compared with 20 percent who said it’s more important to retire at a given age, regardless of savings, according to the survey of adults with household incomes or assets from about $25,000 to $100,000.
