WHAT DO YOU REALLY KNOW ABOUT RETIREMENT?

One of the things that I have enjoyed since we started this blog about early retirement is doing the research on baby boomers and retired people and those who "want to retire". Just when I think that I won't find something new, I come across the information that you will find when you go to the link provided at the end of this post. It is interesting to see how much of the media is jumping onto the babyboomer bandwagon. To me this is a good thing. The more we discuss the issues, concerns and worries and the joys of retirement; the more we will be able to find the solutions to the questions we have. Also it will mean that consumer marketing might better reflect the fact that we are not all alike, whether we are baby boomers who haven't really thought about retirement all the way to already retired and wondering how we can sustain the lifestyle of the retired.

I ask you to go to the following link from an MSNBC Special they are doing on Baby Boomers and take the quiz. You might be surprised at either how much you DO or DON't know about retirement.

Once you take the quiz, please leave a comment or two about what you thought.
