Zusammenfassung:A safe and secure retirement is increasingly out of reach for as much as half of the American population. Taking the lives of restaurant workers as a case study to dive deep into the lived experiences of low wage workers at various stages of life, Mary Gatta warns us that the trends that have already eliminated retirement for so many Americans show no signs of changing course, and she ultimately offers incisive commentary on what can be done to stave off this bleak future.
