There are many professions that require forecasting; meteorologists, economists, statisticians, actuaries, business strategists, professional sports odds-makers, and even politicians. But none of them have as easy of a job projecting the future and as a result as accurate in the long-run as demographers. After all how difficult could it be to project how old a fifty year old will be in twenty years? And what have demographers been telling us for the past four decades? That at some point beginning in the 2010s and lasting for several decades, that the baby boomers born between the mid forty's and mid sixties will eventually retire and will need to be taken care off. We have known this for decades and yet very few have actually sat down to think what the opportunities will be in catering to this generation.Economists and financial industry experts from academia, from the government, from think-tanks, and investment firms have also been telling us that after over consuming with credit cards, auto loans, student loans, and home mortgages all during the 1980's, 90s, and 00s that the average baby boomer is simply not saving enough and therefore will be ill-prepared for retirement. They need to begin planning and planning fast especially the younger baby boomers born in the late fifties and early sixties who still have time to plan well.Historians and especially economic historians have also told us time and time again in books, articles, seminars and courses that mankind has never quite learned to put the experiences of the past to good use. That we always fail to learn from our fathers and their fathers and believe that despite all that looks the same that what we are experiencing today is far more different than in the past and that things are different this time around.
