How will we view careers, retirement, professional development post Recession?

Survey responders’ level of education: 48.1% graduate college, 42.0% Masters/post graduate degree

Although 28.5% had continuous employment during the recession, 47.0% were unemployed at some point during the recession, with 21.9% having a family member unemployed.

51.2%: currently employed full-time
25.9%: not employed, but looking for work
14.2%: self-employed
5.6%: employed part-time

This question still needs more analysis. 52.8% are worried about retirement but only 28.5% had continuous employment. How that impacts post recession is anyone’s guess. What do you think? There’s plenty being written about this subject.
