I think this is a perfect example of how skewed our veiws are about any particular generation. Those that are 70 and over are from the generation that suppusedly saved and was always prepared. That was not the case for many. Same goes for the next generation behind them. They are the ones that "got rich" in the 80s and lived the perfect suburban life. But many have less than $100,000 in the bank. If did save and prepare, you deserve what you have. If you didn't, you're not taking my retirement to pay for yours. I work hard and am saving and doing the right thing and shouldn't be penalized for the lack of effort by others. I think that is the intent of the information, I could be wrong. I am told I was once.
