Baby Boomers Approach Age 65 – in good cheer

No sooner had I read the Pew report (previous post) than I came upon a report from AARP (Approaching 65: A Survey of Boomers Turning 65 Years Old) that appears to come to opposite conclusion. I quote:

AARP's survey of boomers turning 65 in 2011 finds this first wave of the boomer generation generally satisfied with their lives and optimistic about the next third of life.

Sure they have concerns about their financial security and health (who doesn’t) but overall they are in good spirits.

Pay your money take your choice about what conclusion you want to believe. Dick Stroud
