We push ourselves to get better jobs, make more money, and promise ourselves that one day when we retire, we can finally slow down.

Black and Hispanic families, for example, have only a quarter of the amount of net private wealth (assets minus liabilities) compared to White families. Moreover, racial wealth gaps have not diminished much in the past four decades, in part because Whites tend to save more in and withdraw less from employer-sponsored retirement plans than do their Black and Hispanic counterparts.

With his trademark narrative panache, Lowenstein unravels the truth about how pensions work in America and illuminates the impending crisis.
