More boomer doom predicted!
I was not one of the 500 folks that were interviewed for this [-]story[/-] study. May be just another insurance company trying to stir up the folks that may be future clients. Is that possible?

Middle-Income Boomers Expect Tough Retirement"The retirement of the Baby Boom generation will not only test the limits of government programs such as Medicare and Social Security, but also help shape the definition of retirement itself," said Scott Perry, president of Bankers Life and Casualty Company, whose Center for a Secure Retirement released the study.
The study, called "Middle-Income Boomers, Financial Security and the New Retirement," focused on 500 middle-income U.S. citizens between the ages of 47 and 65, with annual income between $25,000 and $75,000.
The study also noted that the concepts of being taken care of by family members, slowing down or moving into a retirement community—activities commonly associated with the retirement of previous generations—are being replaced by baby boomers now wanting to keep up with technology and trying to stay physically fit.
