I am really getting tired of these articles.  Yes i am a baby boomer I know i was luckey to be born at a good time . However it wasn't always easy  I was the oldest of five kids and had to work since i was 12yrs old..The best lesson I learned wasn't in school it was that there is no free lunch.  When my wife and I worked I figured out that we worked 8 months to pay all our taxes.  Out of the remainder we paid off or debts and saved for retirement. We were not wealthy but well off.  Why were we well off we were well educated worked harder than average and did not live beyond our means.  However according to some Liberals we are scum and and need to be punished.  I have no pension my RRIF will pass to my wife and then the Government will take 54% of it. I guess I had a big RRIF because I was lucky.  Not because I saved and happened to be smart enough to be a good investor.  I wonder what the Grasshoppers  will do when the Liberals scare off all the Ants?
