...Maguire in Brothers. Yet she seems assured of a career breakthrough and an Oscar nomination for An Education, both because she's at the center of this appealing movie from first to last and because, through her craft and force of personality, she exudes the sorcerer's ability to make the camera and the audience adore her.

Even then, most firms (including mine) still provided pension plans to their workers. So boomers retiring now were never focused on piling money into 401(k)s. In order for the plans to succeed, workers have to stash savings regularly for about 30 years. Most accounts haven't been around that long...
