Virginia Cornue of Vaboomer is the host for this week’s
Blogging Boomer Carnival #285.
The carnival is a collection of like-minded blogs
cooperating to share their best stories of interest to the Baby Boomer
Generation.
For this carnival, boomer bloggers are writing about
Veteran’s Day, boomers and the Great Recession, traveling in Istanbul,
chocolate cake, election results for consumers, and surviving a snowstorm after
Hurricane Sandy.
Boomers, born between 1946 and 1964, are leading
corporations, serving as governmental officials, heading up non-profits,
worrying about retirement, and experiencing layoffs at a higher rate than
younger workers. They’re also reinventing themselves in trying economic times,
with some looking for their dream jobs to keep them happy in retirement.
At each stage in their lives, boomers have
changed things. They’re continuing to make America different as they begin
entering into their retirement years.
In addition to Unlocking The Power of Your Money,
members of the Blogging Boomer Carnival are: The Accidental Locavore, The
Midlife Crisis Queen, Sightings From 60, Arabian Tales and Other Amazing
Adventures, So Baby Boomer, and Vaboomer.
