Could the plight of our grandparents and great-grandparents become our own?
As far as retirement goes, it already has become our own. With our 401ks already cut in half and still dwindling, we may end up dependent solely on the government if we ever find ourselves forced to retire. Unless we experience a dramatic revival soon, I and those of a similar age (mid 40s) will probably quite literally work until I drop dead of old age. That is only if our employers don’t force us to retire so they can hire younger, less expensive, people.
I don’t know what course to take in this environment.
