San Diego, CA – May 17, 2010 –
For almost a year now, the
Baby Boomer Muse has been providing insightful advice to
Baby Boomers hard hit by the "Great Recession." The blog
addresses financial and retirement lifestyle issues for the
two-thirds of Baby Boomers who have seen their home equity
evaporate and their savings decimated. It’s message –
retirement is still possible, but Boomers must educate
themselves, adjust their plans and take positive action to
make it happen.
An offshoot of
BabyBoomerLifeboat.com which offers information,
insights and resources for the Boomer generation, the Baby
Boomer Muse provides timely updates and candidly discusses
options available to Boomers coming up on retirement. This
informative blog is authored by Al Kernek, a Boomer himself
and CEO of Pacifica Endeavors LLC (the site’s owner).
"The majority of Boomers approaching retirement no longer
have sufficient nest eggs to support themselves in the
lifestyle they had envisioned," states Kernek. "Our website
and blog educate Boomers about retirement alternatives and
provide a portal to helpful resources. Just because you’ve
been hurt by the recession doesn’t mean you can’t still
comfortably retire, but it does require a broader
perspective and work on your part to create a new plan based
on today’s realities."
A recent entry in the Baby Boomer Muse blog, for example,
discusses the pros and cons of "Strategic Defaults" for
Boomers whose homes are upside-down on their mortgages.
"Depending on where they live, many Boomers do not have the
time to wait for a market recovery. In many cases, ‘walking
away’ from a home that has become a money pit rather than a
retirement asset is the best answer," notes Kernek. "The
important thing is to understand what alternatives are
available in these situations and the possible ramifications
of each."
Another entry vents emotion at credit card companies that
inexplicably raise rates on Baby Boomers with good credit
scores. Other discussions highlight qualification obstacles
facing Boomers seeking to finance a retirement home in
today’s real estate market, and updates include the most
affordable places to retire.

retire are welcome to explore options and share their
