<br/><br/> "Getting fired during your peak earning years has always been scary. You'd scramble for a few months, but you'd find something. Today it's different. Get fired and you can scramble for years--and still find nothing. Welcome to the cold new world of the prematurely, involuntarily retired." (FORTUNE) This article examines the factors that "have hastened the demise of the safe, secure white-collar job," especially for older workers.
