FH Boom Daily Digest – August 6, 2010 Posted: 06 Aug 2010 05:46 AM PDT Top News From Today's "Boomiverse" RETIREMENT: Boomers Say Travel, Pet Care Are Needs, Not Wants Overview: "Some people say they want things like an Internet connection and an annual family vacation, while other say they feel they need such things. The same may go for having a pet. For many baby boomers, those are all basic needs, not luxuries, according to a new survey." Why Boomers' Retirement Is Different From Their Parents Overview: "Many people in previous generations worked as long as they could and very few were fortunate enough to have a retirement that would be considered "golden" by today's standards. How many spent the last third (or more) of their lives pursuing hobbies and leisure instead of working? Boomers retiring in their 60s can expect to live about 30 years in retirement, which is a lot longer than their parents did." Boomers Driving and Demanding Innovation Overview: "The convergence of older Boomer expectations and technology is forging a disruptive force driving innovation that will improve life tomorrow for everyone." |
