We push ourselves to get better jobs, make more money, and promise ourselves that one day when we retire, we can finally slow down. However, we often push ourselves to the brink of breaking long before we can retire. We spend most of our adult lives working to be able to enjoy our retirement but forgetting that life was meant to be enjoyed in the here and now.

The U.S. economy experienced one of the most productive and prosperous decades in its history in the 1990s. Led by technological advancement, a post-Cold War surplus of investment capital, and the growing importance of international trade, the American economy took off on the longest unbroken expansion in its history. Many economy watchers called it "the Goldilocks Economy", because it was not too hot and not too cool. Then, very quickly and with little warning, it ground to a devastating halt.

America's leaders say the economy is strong and getting stronger. But the safety net that once protected us is fast unraveling. With retirement plans in growing jeopardy while health coverage erodes, more and more economic risk is shifting from government and business onto the fragile shoulders of the American family.
