Generation X faces a financial and caregiving squeeze
Original: generation x
Generation X, now in its 50s, is being described as the 'sandwich generation': simultaneously supporting ageing parents and adult children while racing to build retirement savings. Commentators warn this dual financial and caregiving burden leaves many Gen Xers with an unprecedented reckoning ahead of retirement, with limited time to recover from competing pressures.
Why now: Ongoing concern about retirement insecurity and the dual caregiving burdens hitting Gen X as they near retirement age.
