According to Ryan Frederick, less than 4% of the housing stock in the U.S. is designed for people with mobility challenges. As we age, that must change. If you're one of the women who intends to control $30 trillion by the end of the decade and you can get excited about renovating your forever home, comment and share. (Personally, I love renovating bathrooms!) But here's the deal: That renovation, an accommodation to frailty, comes at a cost. Don't forget to build that cost into your retirement distribution planning. #WeRescueOurselves #NotYoungNotDone #MathNotMagic https://lnkd.in/eW6eS8wE

Peter and Robert had both been successful in their careers—Peter as an engineer and Robert as a marketing executive—but their retirement approaches couldn’t be more different.

Absolutely 100% agree .. great read 👍🏻 Changing perceptions begin with good communication and finding out what customers want and need. It’s also important to consult with staff to guage their views and get the model right for them too, after all there the ones delivering the service and it’s the customers who are receiving it.. modernising ‘Sheltered Housing’ is a must for any housing provider and it needs to cover many aspects from standard of properties right the way through to the way we engage and speak to customers . #retirementliving #modernisation #consultation #listenandlearn

America Has Never Had So Many 65-Year-Olds. They’re Redefining the Milestone.   Almost 4.1 million 65-year-olds will retire this year. Yet in our new survey from The Harris Poll and Age Wave featured this weekend in The Wall Street Journal, many are thinking of retirement as anything but a winddown.   It’s a new chapter: “Being 65 is not just thinking about who you were, but what you might become in a new chapter,” says Ken Dychtwald, CEO of Age Wave, a California-based consulting firm specializing in aging-related issues in Clare Ansberry's reporting (Ansberry Clare).   Keep on working: True, far from the traditional shuffleboard stereotype, today’s new retiree is saying, “I can’t drive 65. " Data from Pew shows that close to two-thirds of 65-and-older employees are working full time, compared with nearly half in 1987.   More discretionary spending: And the medium net worth of 65-74-year-old households (adjusted for inflation) was $410,000 in 2022, up from $283,000 in 2010, according to the Federal Reserve.   Have a purpose: Another important trend is turning inward rather than chasing fading youth or beauty. In our Age Wave/Harris survey, having a purpose matters more than having youthfulness among people 50 and older.   While all the talk veers toward Gen Z, businesses need to consider Boomers in the workplace and marketplace.
