Boomers represent 44% of the US population, and their buying power is considerable: in the next 5 years, they're projected to hold 70% of US disposable income and buy 49% of total consumer-packaged goods.
By 2017, adults over 50 will control a full 70% of all disposable cash in the United States.
By 2022, the baby boomer generation will have inherited as much as $15 trillion from parents and older spouses.
Just over two thirds of baby boomers surveyed by Nielson said that they plan to spend more time on their hobbies post-retirement, spending at a higher rate as they do so.
SO when 50% of the pop die off should leave the rest in pretty good shape. [;)]

Why don't we go to school and work on the weekends and take the week off!

Not to worry, 50% of your 70% is already designated for reparations and buying weapons for cartels, etc, etc.
