What is this "Retire"?
Posted by Sabien in Wisconsin
Wed Mar 01st 2006, 04:55 PM
Riddle me this...what's the chance that a Gen-X er will actually have an opportunity to retire?

The way things are going I know that I'll be forced to continue working just to be able to afford not dying. At this rate healthcare costs will easily outpace my income by the time I get to retirement age - if such a thing exists then.

feeling "glass half empty" today...
