| FH Boom Daily Digest – April 26, 2010 Posted: 26 Apr 2010 05:22 AM PDT Top News From Today's "Boomiverse" Middle Boomers: Not Old Yet Overview: "The oldest baby boomers have been demanding (and getting) attention for 60 years or more. The youngest boomers have won attention in part by scornfully differentiating themselves from their boomer elders. But what about the "middle boomers"? Noting that, like the stereotypical middle child, they've suffered a degree of neglect, a recently released survey from the MetLife Mature Market Institute sets out to remedy this deficiency by examining the characteristics of those who now are age 52 to 58 -- a cohort that numbers some 29 million in this country and stands at the peak of its earning power." Jane Fonda is still going strong on fitness Overview: "Jane Fonda is 72. And she's back. She's putting on her workout clothes and getting ready to exercise, and she'd like you to join her. The actress, who was the queen of the aerobics movement in the '80s and '90s, is hosting World Fitness Day, an exercise event Saturday at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta. And she just finished two new workout DVDs for Baby Boomers and seniors, scheduled for release in December. They're her first since the mid-'90s." Dr. Oz eases ageing down road to fitness Overview: "Now the star of the Dr. Oz Show, Mehmet Oz, has reached the mellow age of 50 and has teamed with AARP Magazine to create a six-month plan for increasing longevity among the 50-plus population." Longevity Rules And Boomers Win Overview: "Get ready for the first generation to cash in on the "longevity dividend." Life expectancy in the United States has increased by 30 years over the past century, to age 78 -- an advance greater than the progress of the previous 50 centuries." |
