We want to call attention to a new report from McKinsey Global Institute, the academic arm of McKinsey & Co. The numbers are new, but the conclusions aren't; boomers haven't saved enough. However, the manner in which the report is presented and the solutions the authors present are some of the clearest and easy to understand that we've seen. It's well worth a visit and is something that can act as an aid in explaining the challenges ahead to prospects and client.
