The authors would like to make the following corrections to this article:

In the second paragraph of the introduction “<6% of households” should read “less than 6% of households”.

Equation (13) should read:

(13) $${\rm {\opf E}}\Lambda _{v,t} \equiv \sum\limits_{\tau = t}^{v + D - 1} U\left( {C_{v,\tau} ^{\varepsilon _c} \left[ {1 - L_{v,\tau}} \right]^{1 - \varepsilon _c}} \right)(1 + \rho )^{ - (\tau - t)} \mathop \prod \limits_{s = t - v}^{\tau - v} (1 - \mu _s ),$$

Footnote 6 should read:

Model age is denoted by it − v and thus runs from i = 0 (newborn) to i = D − 1 (oldest). Persons enter the economy at the biological age of 18. Biological age is thus given by i + 18. Unless noted otherwise, throughout the paper we refer to the agent's biological age.

In the penultimate paragraph of section 3.7. “lil.5% nearly” should read “linearly”.

In footnote 15 “2,100” should read “2100”.
