Retirement Planning

See: Retirement Planner.

You should do this. Plan for retirement. Don't just turn 70 and mumble, "Ok, so now what savings do I have, er, um...do I have any?"

Lots of political questions revolve around this one. Bob didn't save a nickel. Went to Hawaii every year, staying at the HIlton, drinking fancy drinks. He drove a Lexus, then a Porsche. Armani suits. Really nice hairpiece. You know "that guy." He's broke at 70 and then asks society to pay for his retirement.

Then you have Larry, who planned. Rare vacations. Priuses. Suits from, well, Big and Tall. Went bald proudly. But he retired at 70 with a million bucks. He's not asking the government for anything. But then a politician calls out the "need" to add a tax to take care of people like Bob.

Fair? Not fair? You tell us. And Larry.
