A crisis is looming for baby boomers and anyone else who hopes to
retire in the coming years. In When I'm Sixty-Four, Teresa
Ghilarducci, the nation's leading authority on the economics of
retirement, explains how to confront this crisis head-on, revealing
the causes behind the increasingly precarious economics of old age
in America and proposing a bold plan to guarantee retirement
security for every working citizen. Retirement is one of the
hallmarks of a prosperous, civilized market economy. Yet in America
today Social Security is on the ropes. Government and employers are
dismantling pension security, forcing older people to work longer.
The federal government spends billions in exemptions for 401(k)s
and other voluntary retirement accounts, yet retirement savings for
most workers is falling. Ghilarducci takes an unflinching look at
the eroding economic structure of retirement in America--and what
she finds is alarming. She exposes the failures of pension
regulators and the false hopes of privatized Social Security. She
tells the ugly truth about risky 401(k) plans, do-it-yourself
retirement schemes, and companies like Enron that have left
employees without any retirement savings. Ghilarducci puts forward
a sweeping plan to revive the retirement-income system, a plan that
will ensure that, after forty years of work, every American will
receive 70 percent of their preretirement earnings, guaranteed for
life. No other book makes such a persuasive case for overhauling
the pension and Social Security system in order to provide older
Americans with the financial stability they have earned and
deserve.
