Allstate’s “Retirement Reality Check” survey is an annual review of Americans’ attitudes toward, and savings for, retirement. The 2004 survey shows that, while Americans generally are optimistic about retirement, they recognize specific areas in which they are falling short financially. In the Allstate survey, the generations were defined as: Silent Generation, born before 1946; Baby Boomers, born 1946-1964; and Generation X, born 1965-1978.
