Yes, the transfer to the baby boomers is just starting. It is a transfer from a small generation (the original "baby bust) of the people born between 1925 and 1939 to a large generation (the Baby Boom: 1945 - 1964). See this animation for the bust / boom. calculatedrisk.blogspot.com Since this transfer is from a relatively small cohort to a large cohort, its impact in general will be small. The transfer from the Boomers to the following generation will be much more significant - but that won't be significant for another 20 to 30 years.
