So Basically I Can Look Forward to Working Until I Drop Dead One Day

Well, that's just great.  Retirement's kaput.  As the Cine-Sib and I have actually discussed,  these days it does feel as though we're seeing our futures melt away in order to pay for the present -- including other people's present.   Just how the hell we're supposed to save enough to ever retire is a question we'd love to find an answer for.  (Add too one terrifying thought: in old school Taiwanese culture, a person's IRA is called "children."  Add too a huge dose of filial piety to make it stick.)
