#GenX? The "sandwich generation" taking care of both parents and kids?
We wanted to be better parents than our own. We are busy making money and that's good because of all the people who depend on us.
As a generation though, our pockets emptier for retirement.
"As the first generation ...to move away from pensions in the private sector, Generation X’s savings problems foreshadow "
