RETIRING BABY BOOMERS
RETIRING BABY BOOMERS
THE FIRST OF THE BABY BOOMERS TURNS 60 THIS YEAR!!
Just as it was when BB's were growing up, so it will be while growing older (uh, er...becoming mature...) Because BB's are the largest population growth ever, whatever we do, whatever we buy will affect economic and sociological trends.
In the next 25 years, we will strain the health care system to the max, we will also affect manufacturing and service sector trends.
You don't realize it, but you ARE and WILL BE very much in demand in a second career after retirement. Since we are the "bulk" of the population, when we retire, a lot of the "knowledge base" in business, education, and industry will disappear. These will NEED US to continue in other roles in order to "pass the torch".
Baby boomers will re-invent retirement. They will not disappear into the sunset in their RV. Because of their past experiences with politics, music, and pop culture, most will choose to affect the improvement of life in the USA in many different areas.
According to a survey conducted in 2005 by the Nomura Research Institute, 78.2% of BB's wish to continue working after retirement. Fortunately, because of retirement income, BB's will have a diversity of work modes open to them. This will be a HUGE influence to the global community that will feel BB's "retirement tsunami" peak impact by 2030.
This page is dedicated to assisting those BB's in making good choices for the future occupational or volunteer area they choose to serve.
GET READY FOR YOUR SECOND ACT!!!
If you are thinking of retiring, read the book, Second Acts by Stephen M. Pollan. This is a great read and will serve as an inspiration to you in reinventing your "next life". Pollan is a "sharp writer" who was an attorney and financial advisor in NYC. This book has a diagnostic tool and a way to create a step-by-step plan for recreating your life. Retirement is a perfect time to do so.
Another way to prepare for your "second act" is to schedule a complete testing and planning battery to map our your life after retirement.
