October 23, 2009:  US News and World Report: Baby Boomer Businesses are Booming

We like to think that most entrepreneurs are 20-somethings starting Web-based businesses in their garages. Although there are a few famous business titans who launched companies shortly after college or even dropped out, that is far from the norm. Americans between the ages of 55 and 64 have had a higher rate of entrepreneurial activity than those age 20 to 34 in every year between 1996 and 2007...

Baby Boom—Or Bust?

We grew up in prosperous times and lived life to the hilt...
but have baby boomers saved enough for retirement?

The majority of us baby boomers foresee neither full-time leisure nor full-time retirement, but a combination of both. With 30 years of retirement a real possibility, we are looking for challenges, not rocking chairs. Some plan to launch new careers or use their skills as volunteers. Others say they will go back to school, start their own businesses, or try to turn a profit from a hobby.


Are You a “Wealth Builder”, "Empowered Trailblazer" — or “Leisure Lifer”?

In The New Retirement Survey, Harris InteractiveŽ and Age Wave questioned a diverse population and identified five different types of soon-to-be retiring boomers: the "Empowered Trailblazers," the "Wealth-Builders," the "Leisure Lifers," the "Anxious Idealists" and the "Stretched and Stressed."

  • About 18% were “Empowered Trailblazers,” people who look forward to retirement because they see it as a progression to another phase of life. About 90% in this group plan to work some after retirement, but they will also be busy with travel, volunteering, taking or teaching classes, and generally enjoying anything new that comes along.

  • “Wealth Builders” (20%) are looking for more financial security for themselves and their families, and money is the main reason 79% will continue to work after official retirement.

  • “Anxious Idealists” (13%) worry that they do not have enough money to retire, especially since they want to leave an inheritance for their children and a legacy to charitable organizations.

  • “Leisure Lifers” (13%) just want to relax. They’re sick of work, probably never liked their jobs, and definitely don’t want to work after retirement. They had low income levels and did not save enough, but they figure “someone will do something” to help them if they get into trouble.
  • The “Stretched and Stressed” (18%) are well aware that they have not saved enough for retirement. They will work because they have to, but they don’t look forward to it. This group is the least optimistic.
