Every week I come across an article or two that I find very helpful to me as a Baby Boomer and think may be of some interest to you, the community, as well.
They may be from an online news source, another Blog or Website or something I found surfing around the Internet. They could even be something that was sent in by a reader of the Blog or a member of the Baby Boomer’s Forum.
Enjoy!
Layoffs raise Social Security questions for older workers by Sandra Block… With the overall unemployment rate at 9.8% is it worth trying to stay in the rat race for Baby Boomers? If you’re thinking of retiring early and collecting the S.S. benefits you paid into your whole working life, you should read this article first.
Baby Boomer Retirement: The News Gets Worse by Howard Gleckman… As if the previous article wasn’t bad enough. This article delves into how much it will cost to deal with short and long term health benefits and whether or not you can actually afford to stay healthy or worse become infirmed.
I hope you found this weeks choice(s) helpful and enjoyable. What did you think? Do you have any suggestions for next week?
