Many of us are relying on defined contribution plans to help fund retirement. But Harvard Business School professor Robert C. Merton believes today's plans are not sustainable. So what's next? A new way to look at the problem. Key concepts include: Defined contribution plans currently offered by the majority of employers place an undue burden on workers who don't have the interest, time, or expertise to manage their finances. A new pension program focuses on an inflation-protected annuity rather than an endpoint with a lump sum of accumulated wealth. The program requires few interactions from users: "set it and forget it."
