Move into mausoleums - you heard it first on 50plus.blogspot.com

It is fascinating looking at what search terms lead visitors to this blog.

Increasingly I am seeing phrases like “companies doing well from the boomer generation” and “companies to succeed with the aging population”.

Well here is a hot tip. The mausoleum business is booming. In the US it is growing at 10-15% per year even though the number of burials is static. Clearly, we are prepared to spend a few more bucks on our funeral rather than just have the drab old pine box.

Beware, the Chinese, Indians and Italians are taking an increasing share of the market with their prefabricated granite structures, now making up 15% to 20% of US sales. If you want all of the lurid details read this.

If anybody else has some zany markets that will benefit from the 50+ please let me know.
