<<On the whole, the Boomers as a group have a much higher net worth than they did ten years ago.>> That BETTER be true...'cause they're definitely 10 years closer to retirement, and social security is 10 years closer to bankruptcy!<NG>

<Are you under water on your mortgage? I'm not, nor do I know anyone who is, although I'm sure someone out there is because I was in the past with a former house> Sorry, I don't know what the point is... that houses have increased in value [so have stocks] over the past 20 years??? Ok. <On the whole, the Boomers as a group have a much higher net worth than they did ten years ago. Which refutes the idea that as a whole, they are worse off. > Well, sure... marked to market right now. DAK
