Older Workers Forced to Retire

Dec 8, 2009

1 min read

This is an excellent article from the Wall Street Journal concerning how the recession is forcing older workers into retirement years before they had planned, forcing many to start receiving social security payments earlier, which lowers their payments for life, and making it very difficult for those who do want to work to find a new job. It looks like we will be facing a wave of poverty among seniors.
