6. Yep - and the boomers start turning 65 in a few months.
Boy are they going to be in for a big surprise. They do not realize yet that they will have to purchase private medical insurance at a high cost. A lot of them will change their mind about retiring at 66 (their full retirement age) when they figure out they can't afford it. And, retiring is exactly what they need to do to ease the high unemployment numbers.
