Longevity is a new world. Today’s baby boomers can expect to live longer than previous generations – perhaps 20 or 30 bonus years. And many of them will be years of good health and active minds.
As the same time, early retirement is no longer an option for many people; income-wise as well and interest-wise. In fact, there are moves afoot to banish the word ‘retirement’ itself, because of its implications of withdrawing from life!
So, we’re left with lots of questions, lots of challenges and lots of choices – like no other generation that has ever lived!
That’s what Busy Boomers is all about … these precious years that we call the ‘third age*’ and how each of us can make the most of them.
The one-size-fits-all retirement planning manual is no longer adequate – because these bonus years for most people won’t be about the rocking chair. They’ll be about rocking the boat and changing the stereotypes!
They won’t be about your resources and battening down. They’ll be about discovery, surprise and creating new paths. They’ll be about grasping opportunities and contributing to society and the community in new and creative ways.
They’ll be about …..? Well, that really depends on you. After all, it’s your life, your time, and it’s about who you really are. And about your work, play, relationships and what has meaning for you.
And that’s what BusyBoomers and our 2young2retire program is all about. Not giving you the answers, but setting up the process through which you can explore your third age options and set some goals for the next phase of your journey.

*your third age is the name for all those years of active living that used to be thought of as ‘retirement’ – the years after you finish your traditional career (though that doesn’t mean you may not be working in the third age!). The third age years are not to be confused with the ‘fourth age’ when growing frailty may set in.
