Redefining Aging in America

As Boomers get older, they're redefining what it money to be old. That doesn't connote Boomers deprivation to be fund in their 20s or 30s; it merely way they want to touch as favorable as conceivable for their age. In fact, more Boomers say they feel roughly 12 old age little than they are. They're credible just about what it mode to germinate older, but they aren't willing to be "old." Maybe they'll ne'er be fit.

"The massive postwar baby boomer coevals that drove all remarkable cultural and selling way for 50 age...is defying marketers' expectations around how it desires to singing and shop," says Louise Lee in BusinessWeek.

Others programme to create themselves by starting a 2nd trade. Finally, Boomers appear to like to retire close to their families, conformation those associations tight-knit, fairly than moving distant to a space heater climate.
