We all know social security is on life-support and any politician that tells you otherwise just wants your vote. Wake up--the money's gone!
90% of the pension plans of the S&P 500 companies have under-funded pension liabilities. These are the best of the best and they can't pay-what does that say about the rest of them?
The Pension Benefits Guaranty Corporation-the guys who bail out the companies that can't pay their pension liabilities, they're in need of a bailout, too--so much for the guarantee.
There's no immunity from the crisis for government employees either. Individual local governments are taking out billions of dollars in bond debt to cover their pension liabilities-how long do you think taxpayers will stand for that?
Get used to the fact that the only money you'll have to survive on is the money you save and invest right now.
It's time to get serious!
