That lines up, it’s when the poorly-run businesses all went bankrupt and the pro business judges let them wipe them away during bankruptcy proceedings.
Sadly, I really believe that a lot of Boomers grew up thinking that this was in their future and didn’t recognize what was happening when they went away nor adjust to creating their own retirement in response. Younger Gen X and onward certainly saw what was happening, whether they have the ability to do anything about it or not.
