The Boomer bonanza has begun! As a result of this demographic shift we advisors are in a position to enjoy a virtually endless supply of prospects for decades to come. If you are not actively working in this market you might consider making a shift to start focusing on the issues these folks will be facing in the coming years.
Unfortunately, many of the Baby Boomers have done a lack luster job preparing for the day when they will no longer be active in the workforce, and will need to rely on their retirement accounts, pensions, and Social Security benefits. In fact, many of the Baby Boomers are “sandwich” babies faced with caring for their aged parents while trying to wrap up college tuition payments for their adult children. This is not a very easy balancing act.
