1) You write that American workers must face a truth: lifelong employment is no longer guaranteed. In practical terms, what does this mean?

People are living longer.  According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, life expectancy in the United States has been on the rise for the last decade.  Some experts predict people will soon be living to age 100.

What we consistently hear is that women realize they must stay educated, healthy and employed to be able to support themselves over a longer lifespan.

With increasing life expectancies, it is not unlikely that a person’s career could span 50-60 years compared to our parents’ 20-30 year careers.
