Why We Want You to Be Rich: Two Men, One Message
by Robert T. Kiyosaki , Donald J. Trump

This book explained that the baby boomers are going to retire in the years between 2012 – 2016. Once they retire, there is going to be a huge market crash because all the money put in by the baby boomers for their 401K will begin to be taken out for retirement.

They explained that the social security funds are not going to be sufficient and they gave numbers to back this up. You’ll have to read the book to get these numbers because I don’t remember them but I think it was about 70,000 by 2016 to retire. Can you imagine the government paying out 70,000 a month if these retirees are getting $1,000 a month? Many of them would be getting more income for social security, that is if the goverment has enough money in the social sercuritys fund by then.

The government is aware but are leaves the problem for the next generation to figure it out.

I would like to ask, if there is anyone or most likely a team that has been researching this? Has any one has a thought on how to fix this crisis? If not, would you be interested in forming a team to figure out what we could do?

There would not be any compensation and any expenses would be your own. But just thing about it, it we don’t start coming up with a plan, there won’t be any retirement money for us when we retire.

There was a lot of other great information in this book, but I can remember it right now because the part I do remember was all that I think about now.

They suggest some book to read, and one that caught me eye or ear, sense if an audio book, was “The World is Flat.” So I rented this audio book also.
