Aye, ye heard me right! Among those who haven't yet reached the ripe old age of retirement, a staggering 50 percent be expectin' to receive some booty from the Social Security system when they finally hang up their boots. On the other hand, a mere 47 percent be thinkin' that the system be leavin' them high and dry, like a ship stranded on a deserted island, without a drop of rum to be found.
