FH Boom Daily Digest-Apr. 14, 2008

Top News from Today's "Boomiverse"

Baby-Booming Without The Body Blowout
Eugenie Jones
www.kitsapsun.com

Overview: “If 40 is the new 30, and 50 is the new 40, and 60 is the new 50, that leaves even more opportunity for baby boomers to live their fit, active best! After all, the baby-booming 42 to 60 age group is accustomed to leading active lifestyles, and they're not going to let 10 years here or there stand in the way. Thankfully, they don't buy into the ‘I'm too old to get into shape’ mentality.”

Baby Boomers, Canadians Like Yuma's Winters
Joyce Lobeck
www.yumasun.com

Overview: “It wasn't a record year for northerners wintering in Yuma's sunshine, but still they left behind warm reports of a ‘really good’ season. They seemed to start arriving earlier, stay longer and have a really good time, according to businesses that cater to the area's winter visitors and seasonal residents. Many of them were new faces: baby boomers who are starting to hit early retirement age and looking for fun in the sun.”

Rita:

Is the amount of plastic surgery among boomers in America increasing as well as in Canada?

I write a blog for boomer consumers called The Survive and Thrive Boomer Guide at http://boomersurvive-thriveguide.typepad.com.
