Peace Corps An Attractive Option For Baby Boomers

So You Want to Join the Peace Corps: What to Know Before You Go

The Peace Corps has found that older workers, with their varied skills, are so well-suited overseas that it has begun recruiting people in their 50s, 60s and even 70s. “We’ve been doing a lot of recruiting for older workers,” said Nancy Curren, director for the five-state region including Colorado. “A lot of people were inspired in the 1960s by JFK but stayed with their careers. Now, some of them are finding they might have the time to do it.” There’s no age limit, she says, adding that the oldest recent volunteer was in his 80s. Read more »

A Generational Transfer Of Wealth

Sage-ing While Age-ing

Latest predictions suggest a marked increase in the transfer of wealth over the next 50 years as the World War II generation passes assets on to the Baby Boomers. And, in turn, baby boomers will leave that wealth to their heirs. The projections are based on a number of indicators, starting with current net worth of households. The forecasting takes into account historical population, income, and economic trends, as well as three key demographic indicators: age, education, and race. Education is an important indicator because estate size and net worth typically increase in proportion to education level. On average, a person with a college degree has an estate six times larger than a person with no high school degree, the study says. Read more »

Housing Downturn Turns Up Deals For Baby Boomers And Retirees

The Pre-Foreclosure Property Investor\'s Kit: How to Make Money Buying Distressed Real Estate -- Before the Public Auction

Some real-estate investors are looking to profit from the housing market’s downturn. Individuals and investment groups are searching for fire-sale prices on properties with good long-term prospects and will rent or resell the units when the market appears to be recovering. Call them grave dancers, vulture funds, turnaround specialists or the more euphemistic ‘opportunity investors.’ However you identify them, the deal is the same: When hyperactive real-estate markets lose their sizzle, or property owners no longer can afford to hang on to their houses, well-capitalized investors smell blood and move in.

Website Content Writer, Part-Time, Contract

We’re a new company: www.whatitcosts.com

We’re looking for web content writers to write part-time on a contractual basis. Visit our website to see examples of what we’re looking for. We don’t care what a new HDTV costs, anyone can find that anywhere on the web, but try finding the cost of something like- “What does it cost to have a 75 foot tree removed from my backyard?” You won’t find that under a Google search! You’d have to call companies in your area and get quotes, many times from high pressure salespeople. This is what most people end up doing after a frustrating time on the web looking for ballpark estimates for what it will cost.

In addition, we have categories relating to adventure travel or topics that you don’t normally don’t come across on the web, such as “What it costs to take a submersible to see the Titanic” or “What it costs to become a Ninja”

The qualities in contract writers we’re most interested in are creative writing, humor, and the ability to research a cost-topic and organize
your research in a readable format.

Unlike some Web companies that offer a percentage of (sometimes non-existent) ad revenue, we pay per content piece. If you sound like a a good candidate to us, we’ll send you a topic. We pay $50 per topic for the first 10 articles we accept, increasing to $100 per topic when we accept over 20 articles from you.

Worst case scenario: we select you as a potential writer, we send you a topic, you write 1-2 pages of content after researching it, it’s not a good match for what we’re looking for, we send you a thank you note and a check for $50.

Best case scenario: we select you as a potential writer, we send you a topic, you write 1-2 pages of content after researching it, we like it, we send you a check for $50 and a new topic to write, repeat (on an increasing sliding pay scale we’ll detail to you with your contract, up to $100 per article after 20th article is accepted)

Send us a writing sample or a paragraph about why you’d be good at this to:

admin@whatitcosts.com

Thanks,
The whatitcosts.com Team


* Compensation: $50-$100 per article, depending upon number of articles accepted
* Telecommuting is ok.
* This is a part-time job.
* This is a contract job.

Boom!: Voices of the Sixties Personal Reflections on the ’60s and Today

Boom!: Voices of the Sixties Personal Reflections on the \'60s and Today

“The Greatest Generation,” Brokaw’s 1998 best-seller, successfully tapped into nostalgia about the generation that won World War II. In “Boom! Voices of the Sixties,” Brokaw, 67, writes that he assured “my boomer buddies that I don’t think they represent the worst, far from it, but I also teased that I didn’t think any of them were as great as they thought they were.” The former NBC anchor mixes glimpses of his own life and career with about 100 interviews. The voices and stories of both famous people and ordinary citizens come together as Brokaw takes us on a memorable journey through a remarkable time, exploring how individual lives and the national mindset were affected by a controversial era and showing how the aftershocks of the Sixties continue to resound in our lives today. In the reflections of a generation, Brokaw also discovers lessons that might guide us in the years ahead. Bill Clinton says, “If you thought something good came out of the Sixties, you’re probably a Democrat; if you thought the Sixties were bad, you’re probably a Republican.” Read more »

Retired Baby Boomers Integrate Into Local Economy

Get a Life: You Don\'t Need a Million to Retire Well

Eighty-nine percent of baby boomers report that they want to grow old in their own homes and communities. Building the home and community support systems they need to do so makes the most cost-effective sense. But today, far too many seniors go straight from their homes to a health-care facility. With increasing discretionary income and time on their hands, elder baby boomers will contribute significantly to improving the community’s quality of life. Seniors have and will continue to support local arts and cultural programs through philanthropy, economic development and billions of hours of volunteer community service. We should promote and encourage this ongoing investment of time, and treasure this deep talent pool. Read more »
