I sat down a while back and worked out exactly what I'd be living on in retirement.
Pension projections, Social Security, the lot.
The number I came up with was thirty-five percent.
Thirty-five percent of what I currently earn. That was what I'd worked forty-something years to retire on.
I sat with that number for a long time. The feeling I came up with wasn't anger. It wasn't despair. It was disgust.
