NYRB (summarizing Ghilarducci): "of Americans aged 62-70, only 10 percent are retired and financially stable. Another 11 percent could reture comfortably but choose not to. A full 51 percent are retired, but their living standards have diminished significantly since they stopped working, and 28 percent are still working and cannot afford to stop."
