If you are a
Baby Boomer and the most important things to you at this
stage of your life are 1) having control over your own time
and 2) enjoying quality experiences, then you can "retire"
even if you only have Social Security benefits or a minimal
income...even if your home equity has evaporated!

The decline in home values has
reduced the prospect of comfortable retirements for
the majority of near retirees, according to a new
report from the Center for Economic and Policy
Research (CEPR) .“This extraordinary destruction of
wealth will have tremendous implications for
millions of families as they enter retirement,”
wrote report co-author Dean Baker. “Coupled with a
very low personal savings rate, this means that many
people will only have Social Security and Medicare
to rely on in their retirement."

This Website is devoted to helping the
two-thirds of Baby Boomers who do not have a large 401K, a
big pension, an inheritance, or an executive golden
parachute to sustain them during retirement. Nope -
kids, divorces, job turnovers, the stock market, illnesses,
declining home values
and just plain life took its financial toll. Don't
fret! Most Baby Boomers can still take control of
their lives and comfortably retire by simply learning how to
stretch their retirement dollars.
It requires doing some homework, but we have
done most of the research for you. In here, you will
find links to carefully selected Websites containing
bargains and valuable information that will help Baby
Boomers of all financial stature to realize their goal of a
comfortable, secure, rewarding retirement. This is a
"one stop shop" for all Baby Boomers seeking to retire on a
limited income.
We are Baby Boomers ourselves, and this site
is the result of the considerable research we have
accomplished because we had these questions too. Here
