As I See It: Changing the World, One Pension at a Time
February 6, 2006 Victor Rozek
… Read moreIt will sound improbable to people under 40 who have no memory of it, but not that long ago, families got by on the income of a single earner. One salary was enough to support a middle-class lifestyle. Back then, health care was actually affordable and the cost of health insurance wasn’t the equivalent of a second mortgage. You could attend a state college for next to nothing, and graduates did not begin life buried under a mountain of debt. Entire careers were spent working for a single company with a secured pension at retirement. The middle class flourished.

As I See It: Revenge of the Wise
January 16, 2006 Victor Rozek
… Read moreJust two years from now, 40 percent of the American workforce will be 45 years of age or older. By 2012, one-fifth of American workers will be over 55. As Bob Dylan said, you don’t have to be a weather man to know which way the wind blows. The workforce is aging (or maturing as I prefer to characterize it, being a Boomer myself), and that may be the best news beleaguered IT professionals have heard in a long time–especially those who are 35 and older.
The imminent retirement of the bountiful Boomers (all 78 million of them) will create

As I See It: Balance
January 3, 2006 Victor Rozek
… Read moreThis is the time of year that invites assorted foolish commitments to change and self discipline. And if you are among the legions of the overworked, you may be contemplating a little more balance in your life. Well, good luck. What manager wouldn’t be thrilled to have his 60-hour-a-week star employee morph into a 40-hour-a-week plodder. Face it, working for a salary is like playing baseball: The game has no time limit. You’ll be standing under the hot sun until your team records 27 outs. Then you can go home.
The revolutionary act of announcing that you intend to work
