But in an era of rapidly improving life expectancy, the look-around method once again gives the wrong answer.

By the time the youngest baby boomers turn 65, the Social Security Administration【C4】______that life expectancy at that age could be as high as 18 more years for men and 21 years for women.

A good rule of thumb might be to plan against the possibility that you will【C8】______three quarters of the people in your age group — an actuarial(保险核计的)calculation our Website calculator allows you to make.

【C3】
选项
答案
