Baby boomers, born between 1946 and 1964, are heading into retirement in droves (about 10,000 a day, in fact). Along with the aging of this iconic cohort come lots of data about their poor preparation for their golden years.
Whenthe Baby-Boom generation begins turning age 65 in 2011, there willbe a rapid growth in the number of persons 65 and over. Just as thisgeneration had an impact on the educational system and the labormarket, this large cohort will strain services and programs required byan elderly population. By 2020, the Baby Boomers will be pre-andearly-retirement ages (55 to 64 years) and the young old ages (65 to74 years). Between 1990 and 2020, the population age 65 to 74would grow 74 percent under middle series projections, while thepopulation under age 65 would increase only 24 percent.
