In the recent future, an unprecedented number of Americans will be retiring. After retirement, many people find that their retirement income is not sufficient to support them as expected. Many factors, including lack of information results in many facing insecure retirements. To address this problem, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) have put forth solutions on a forum to urge policymakers to work out and implement solutions that will make retirement more secure for even more Americans.
