Those beginning work today will be working until 75 the way it's going. There'll be handed down tales of "once we used to retire at 65...women at 60 you know...and we had regular buses...and libraries...and local nightly papers....and every morning someone delivered your milk...just a pint...can you believe that?!" :ooo But we are still richer now then we were then....mmmm! :crazy:
