That’s important because this age shift is going to have a huge impact on everything, including our economy, Social Security, the upcoming election, and especially on retirement. Anne Lester, former head of retirement solutions for J.P. Morgan Asset Management Solution Group wants everyone to know that planning for retirement doesn’t have to be so scary — it can be empowering and, yes, even fun.
