Summary

Many elderly individuals, particularly Baby Boomers, face severe financial insecurity, with one in three living close to the poverty line and the majority carrying credit card debt into their 70s and 80s. They are forced to continue working past retirement age, often while also providing unpaid care for their own aging parents and financially supporting their adult children. This 'sandwich generation' burden creates immense stress, leaves no room for health emergencies, and goes largely unnoticed by society. There are no adequate support systems or financial planning tools tailored to this dual caregiving role, making retirement insecurity and caregiver exhaustion a critical unsolved problem.
