If the projection of $250,000 a piece for people who survive past 65 is correct, (as I saw recently) that is practically impossible.
medicare and an f-plan supplement in our area is 10k for a couple . figuring inflation on that over 25-30 years i can see it being close , especially with some long term care thrown in which may not be covered by medicare
all i know is as of sept 1 that national ponzi scheme will be delivering 40k a year in checks to us .

"fair" doesn't get things done, she gotta do what she gotta do to make sure she ends up how she wants
