Change Your Focus

Wondering why you can’t seem to get ahead, why you can’t seem to save any money? Well, maybe you are saving money and don’t even realize it.

Do you have jars of change in your house? Is the ashtray in your car stuffed with coins? Do you have piles of change on your dresser?

Perhaps it’s time to “change” your focus.

Roll up those jars of quarters, piles of nickels and dimes, piggy banks of pennies. You can, of course, take the pile of change to one of those coin-counting machines, but I prefer the actual coin rolling myself. Besides, the machines charge you money and that takes away from your feeling of abundance!

Boomers Putting Retirement On Hold

The word retirement takes on a whole new meaning when talking with the Baby Boomer generation. Bingo, shuffleboard, and golf every day are passé. They want to be busy, just not as busy. They want to stay involved, but not 60 hours a week involved. They want to continue earning, but without the stress and pressure of a traditional job.

Essentially, boomers have finally grown up. We have become working caregivers to our parents and children, and our concerns range from finances to relationships and health. Can you believe the drop-out generation currently sees itself as family-oriented? That the former protest-everything-generation now say they put others before themselves?
