Mark Greene, a 30-year veteran UPS driver from Upstate NY, found out that the pension he and his organization’s members were counting on for their retirement security was in financial crisis. As president of the Teamsters Alliance for Pension Protection (aka TAPP), a grassroots pension watchdog organization, he led efforts to raise funds to perform the first-ever forensic investigation of The New York State Teamsters Conference Pension & Retirement Fund. 
The people running the pension had spent millions (money paid by workers’ retirement savings) for bad advice from so-called experts who ultimately ran the pension into the ground. Ted Siedle says “The New York State Teamsters Conference Pension and Retirement Fund did not have to collapse—gross mismanagement caused this crisis.” 
Listen as Robert, Ted Siedle and Mark Greene give warning to those whose pensions are ill, dying, or dead.

Additionally, on Monday, March 9, the Dow Jones industrial average declined 2,014 points, or 7.8%, its biggest single-day loss since October 2008.

Part two of the 5 Pension Time Bombs series dives deep into how the fifty percent of Americans relying on a pension (DC or DB) are at risk of losing their wealth due to the gross mismanagement of their funds. 
Those that are looting the pensions of public-school teachers, firefighters, police, as well as private-sector workers, can be found on Wall Street. The Wall Street casinos are charging high fees for gambling in risky hedge funds and other speculative investments, outrageous investment-industry conflicts of interest, and outright violations of the law.
According to Ted Siedle, a former attorney with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and America’s leading expert in pension looting, “In the decades to come, we will witness hundreds of millions of elders worldwide, including America’s Baby Boomers, slipping into poverty. Too frail to work, too poor to retire will become the “new normal” for many of the aged.”
One thing is certain: Doing nothing―sitting back, confident your pension check is “in the mail” ―is not an option. It’s a risk you can’t afford to take.
Listen as Robert and Kim are joined by Ted Siedle and Andy Tanner to discuss the massive crisis about to come crashing down on millions of Americans, but more importantly, what you can do about it.
