Description: It has been almost a quarter of a century since Bill Clinton left the White House. But the changes and challenges make it seem like it was from a different time.
Precisely speaking, it was. Clinton, the first of the Baby Boomer Presidents, was both the first of the new, but also the last of the old. He was elected at the high-water mark of the WWII generation, but more accurately, as we can see now, also the last gasp of that group's ideals. He was the first - and really, almost the last of the post-Sputnik embrace of the possibilities powered by hard work and solid mathematics in the form of facts and figures. And he embraced the idea of 'doing the math' to prepare for the future. Time and again, he warned us that now was the time to prepare for that moment when the Baby Boomers began to retire - and the financial changes that would bring. And yet, here we are.
Join Russ Gifford as we trace how we arrived where we are today. And what tomorrow might bring?
