I’m the host this week for the Best of Boomer Blogs #389.
If you’re interested in whether your mental capacities slip as you get older, whether you have a higher chance of being killed by an alligator or gun violence, how to be successful, or how to get more money when you sell your home, you’ve come to the right place.
Below, boomer bloggers describe these topics and offer links to their articles on them:
Tom Sightings ran across a study with the mind-bending title of “Complementary Cognitive Capabilities, Economic Decision Making, and Aging” which explores the question of whether or not your mental capabilities decline with age. Find out the answer in his new post, “Are You as Smart as a 20 Year Old?”
Meryl Baer of Six Decades and Counting, in a serious vein, discusses alligators and guns. They don’t have much in common, you may think, and you would be right. But, after encountering alligators in Florida, Meryl found an analogy in “Alligators and Guns.”
Laura Lee Carter of the Midlife Crisis Queen took a break for “an exclusive media opportunity” this week. She was flown to Chicago to participate in the Strayer University Success Summit with Steve Harvey… what fun.
On my blog, I write about what homeowners can do to increase the value of their homes before they sell them. Findings from a survey of more than 300 licensed residential real estate agents by Consumer Reports show that certain factors, such as smart pre-sale fix-ups and negotiable agent fees, can financially benefit both sellers and buyers.
