Great opinion from @Jsnip4 , good analisa.
Income distribution is really best represented with a triangle with a very steep point. Informative post. :)
Awesome post @etcmike
Absolutely agree. What is the new currency going to be? This is the biggest question our generation should be asking. My theory is that the Phoenix will be some form of gold backed/precious metal backed crypto
Your guess on the new world currency may very well be right. 2018 is right around the corner. We should know more soon.
Have a great weekend!
Steem on,

Yes we will find out more soon I guess! Thanks, hope you have a great weekend too Mike.
Great post friend Up&Resteem
We have a huge problem with the pension system in this country. No one is really talking about it but if we don't get this economy going again fast those pension systems are going to need a bail out.
As one who is hitting the "retirement button", submitting for retirement, this weekend, I completely agree with you.
My pension plan offers a choice between all annuity or lump-sum and annuity. The perils of working for a company that got bought out. The lump-sum offer is from my original company. I will be taking the lump-sum and annuity option and cashing out my vacation and 401-k.
Have a great weekend!
Steem on,
Mike
Your post title reminds me the fact that Indian women hold world's 10% total gold in their houses.
