Racing with the boomersAs a baby boomer with retirement in my future I am reminded of that old video game "Lemmings," where thousands of small creatures begin a mad rush through a progressively difficult obstacle course, usually resulting in their quick demise. It is the job of the game player to guide them through the course and lead them safely to the exit.
I have a terrified feeling that as one of 75 million boomers approaching retirement I have joined the ranks of the lemmings, and I'm about to be plunged into a race that will send me over some unseen cliff.
