Today’s News for Women Over 50

Good morning, Ladies…let’s grab a cup of something hot (in a Christmas cup, of course) and look over some news headlines today of interest to Women over 50.  I curate these headlines just for you and hope you will find something of interest here.  Please remember on the health related topics, to have a discussion with your doctor before you make big changes one something you have read.  

Let’s get started……….

Baby Boomers are still expected to be leaders in 2020, just in a different way.  This article, THE DECADE OF THE YOUNG OLD BEGINS, reports, “THE YEAR 2020 will mark the beginning of the decade of the yold, or the “young old”, as the Japanese call people aged between 65 and 75. The height of the baby boom, the period of high fertility in rich countries after the second world war, was 1955-60. The traditional retirement age is 65, and 2020-25 is 65 years later. One might therefore expect peak retirement for baby-boomers in the coming years—except that they are not retiring. By continuing to work, and staying socially engaged, the boomers, in their new guise as the young old, will change the world, as they have done several times before at different stages of their lives.”  Click on the article title to read more from The Economist.

Looking for a good book to read?  I read this review from Bill Gates and now I want to read this book too.  Check out BILL GATES: THIS BOOK WAS SO GOOD, I STAYED UP WITH IT UNTIL 3 A.M. – THE GIFTED IT TO 50 FRIENDS. on CNBC. (if you want the book, I have it in the slideshow below!)

I put this article in because I believe it has good, important information.  However, I want to add that I do not believe you should just start cold on your own at home doing these movements.  Give yourself the gift of a gym and trainer for Christmas.  It will be the best gift you ever give yourself.  Don’t do it alone, you can be injured.  Read, THERE’S ONE MAJOR DRAWBACK TO LOSING WEIGHT WHEN YOU’RE OLDER – HERE’S HOW TO AVOID IT.

In this day and age, there are perhaps more of you like me who are working at home and hoping to build a business.  This article would be for you, 4 WAYS TO EARN PASSIVE INCOME BY WORKING SMARTER

Finally, tis the season to be bothered and with an election year ahead of us it will only be worse.  So, if you are bombarded with robocalls and you do not want to be, there here is what you need to do.  Read IF YOU ARE BOMBARDED WITH ROBOCALLS, HERE IS WHAT YOU CAN DO.

I hope you found these interesting.  Please feel free to comment on one or all…and then I have a slideshow for you below…I just cannot believe we are so close to Christmas…fall and the holiday time have just flown by this year….enjoy each moment, time goes fast and

KEEP SMILING!!!
