I received an email from a subscriber (thanks Helen) suggesting that I watch the PBS Frontline special titled “Can You Afford to Retire”. I was so impressed with the program that I have decided to focus today’s podcast entirely on the special.

 

The focus of the program is on the changing retirement landscape.

1974 Retirement Funding: 11% Employee 89% Employer

2006 Retirement Funding: 51% Employee 49% Employer

“Defined Pensions”: The Endangered Species

...and more.
