Bloomberg shares insights from Lightcast’s reports that we’re going to be 6 million workers short within the next 10 years.

  • In 2027, the # of people turning 65 > the # of people turning 16
  • The available labor will be younger, more educated, more female which does not match up with the demand for workers in health care, construction, plumbing, and car maintenance
  • More men are leaving the workforce

What does this mean for you and your future?
