The numbers for Monday, September 16, 2013:

1/4: The proportion of Americans under the age of 60 who can expect to get money passed down to them, according to a new report out today. The fact that so few Americans expect to inherit money from relatives — and that most expect to get just $10,000-50,000 — has big implications for their retirement plans.

$300 million: The projected cost of upgrades to a shipping port in Charleston, South Carolina. Vice President Joe Biden will hopscotch from one port to the next on Monday as he makes the case for more investment in infrastructure projects.
