Since this trend has been going on for nearly two decades, the message
is
you have to try to be "retirable" by your 50s - save a lot and live
modestly.
And this takes some restraint and insight, like resisting the
temptation in your 30s to buy a house with a huge mortgage and having
too many kids to support; such obligations come home to roost in your
50s (e.g. kids going to college, still having a big mortgage when you
have no job...)

One thing I don't understand. All kind of economy prophets and career
advisers keep saying that people have to work more years before
retirement. How they (old people) could possible archive that if they
are fired in masses?
