Much has been written about the past, present and future of Baby Boomers for many years.

We have been the guinea pigs under the microscope for studies from consumer spending to aging/anti-aging, credit card debt and student loans to mortgage and real estate purchases, marriage and divorce statistics—the list goes on.

So what is the talk about town these days concerning those of us who were born between the years of 1946 and 1964? What do Baby Boomers have to ‘worry about’ or ‘look forward to’ as we lay awake tossing and turning on our beds in the 21st century?

Try doing a subject search on the web using the keyword ‘boomers’. Articles concerning retirements (or lack of) will make your head spin just deciding which to read first.

Comprised of at least 83 million individuals (estimation based on the 2001 US Census Bureau being over 82 million) ranging between 42 and 60 years of age, Boomers cannot depend entirely on the retirement plans offered by their present employers. Therein does not lay our answers—many of us have decided or are deciding to take our futures into our own hands.

What can we do to insure that our bank accounts remain open and thriving? What should we do to be certain that our homes remain our homes? Who indeed has the answers that we are looking for?

Not only have we Boomers proven to be big spenders on ourselves, we don’t want to grow old either. With more money to spend than most of our parents, we are now looking for products and ways to reverse the effects of aging as well as prevent sickness and disease. This will, of course, result in a better quality of life with more time to spend more money—I see a cycle that should be good for the economy, so what is the problem?

Where you reside—whether making a good living or perhaps barely making a living—and what vocation you’ve been in sets the stage for your ‘future’ now. There are some areas where after years of thriving in a particular industry (i.e. automotive) many people are being forced into early retirement.

Reading statistics and survey results can lead a Baby Boomer, or anyone for that matter, to despair. I’m not here to crunch numbers or bring doom and gloom as businesses are cutting costs just to keep up, often at the expense of their older and sometimes hardest workers. I would rather bring a message of hope and encouragement to people willing to take their futuristic bull by the horns.

Our decision to work from home has resulted in more freedom to do the things we want to do with our lives—basically, we are living our dream. It is our own choice to relocate if we so desire, which is another advantage in that it helps us to grow our organization as well as explore new areas. We have taken control of our lives and gained financial freedom in the process.
