Baby Boomer Earnings Continue To Decline - But Some Boomers Are Thriving

Baby Boomer earnings continue to decline, according to the 2009 U.S. Census Bureau assessment of income. Two of the top concerns of Baby Boomers (especially those considering retirement) are: having enough funds to last through retirement; and maintaining their lifestyle in retirement. Layoffs are also a concern for baby Boomers as companies and governmental agencies continue to lay off workers albeit at a slightly slower pace than in years past. One way, for some Baby Boomers, to address these concerns is to continue to work at their present job. Income for those retiring will most likely come from multiple sources.
