- 01/10/15 03:32 AM
This generation cannot disconnect from work. Baby boomers plan to take an average four to five leisure trips in 2015, about on par with 2014, an AARP survey says. — Howard Lipin I thought this reprint from AARP rather interesting for the Baby BoomGeneration inasmuch as we seem to fit this model to a T. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out in the foreseeable future as Baby Boomers continue to be challenged with the dicotomy of being able to juggle their retirement years and there ability to live out … (2 comments)
Today, America is blessed with about $21.7 trillion dollars according to the Investment Company Institute. But with 78 million Boomers hitting their retirement years will that be enough? That's the big question. When our parents retired, "The Greatest Generation", the average lifespan was 65 years old. Today many Boomers are living into their mid to late 80's in relatively healthy condition. There are more Centurions than ever before in history. While all of this sounds good what does it really mean for our economy and that 21.7 trillion dollars? … (10 comments)

It's a known fact just how much this generation helped to create and shape the real estate industry for the past several generations it's going to be interesting to see what their next step will be. However, let's not forget how the BB's … (1 comments)

What will 77 plus million BB's do with all their two-story homes and large estates when they no longer wish to negotiate staircases or large property maintenance responsibilities?
Could we BABY BOOMERS be the next housing
$BOOM$?
Or housing BUST?
Demographors & prognosticators are having lot's of fun with this one. Many think BB'S will drag & drain the economy to its knees with all of our ENTITLEMENTS. OR That we haven't saved and prepared enough for our retirement. Or that our mounting HEALTH CARE COSTS could … (2 comments)

baby boomers: Are "Baby Boomers" Still Viable Candidates For Home Ownership? Or Will They Be Just As Happy To Become Renters?
- 10/11/11 03:51 AM
Are "Baby Boomers" Still Viable Candidates For Home Ownership? Or Will They Be Just As Happy To Become Renters? s 10,000 Baby Boomers will be hitting retirement age everyday for the next 15 to 20 years. Many if not most, and I am one of them, currently own large 3 to 5 bdm homes with big yards and lots of ongoing maintenance issues. They're now starting to downsize by the thousands. Anybody have a crystal ball? What do you think all these folks will do for housing for the rest of their lives? I've got my thought but I'd like to get … (3 comments)
