Demographics and the Coming Retirement Crisis Episode 35
Episode Notes
By 2030, all baby boomers will be over the age of 65 and will make up about 20% of the U.S. population. That means for the first time in our nation’s history, there will be more people over the age of 65 than under age 18. That poses enormous economic challenges for the country and individuals. Unfortunately, many Americans lack the resources for a comfortable retirement or skipped crucial planning steps along the way. Now, many new and soon-to-be retirees face dual threats of high inflation and market volatility. Grant Kvalheim, president of Athene. talks about how financial professionals can help their clients grow their retirement savings and create guaranteed income in these challenging times.
