Posted by Thomas Lloyd in Untagged 

Thomas Lloyd

While Playa del Carmen real estate has never taken a drastic downturn, it did slow down somewhat.  The good news is that the very fact that it didn’t “burst” like other markets did, among other factors, make it a prime location to see the best boost.

Seven Reasons Why Baby Boomers Continue Working

Posted by Crystal T in working after retirement , what to do after retirement , things to do after retirement , second career , retirement statistics , retired workers , post-retirement jobs , post retirement careers , phased retirement , jobs for baby boomers , jobs after retirement , career after retirement , Baby Boomers , baby boomer trends , baby boomer jobs , Average retirement age , AARP Survey

The anomaly is that people in America are living 30 years longer than people in the 20th century but only working two years longer.  In 2000, the average retirement age was 62, and the average retirement age in 2010 was 64.  Many of the recent retirements were involuntary: the massive lay-offs between 2008-2012 because of the Great Recession, corporate mergers and consolidations, work being outsourced to other countries, increased automation, and other factors.  Many were also voluntary as employees accepted attractive severance packages or just wanted to get off the corporate treadmill.

Leading industry experts and many of those who have journeyed ahead will share their personal experiences and knowledge in a great variety of areas.

Boomers Living Abroad

The number of Americans and Canadians living abroad, by today's count approximately 7 million (according to The Washington Post), is twice the population of Chicago and greater than that of 33 U.S. States. A number that has grown steadily over the past decade, and it is expected to more than double within ten years. In the next 20 years, 100 million baby boomers, from the USA and Canada, are going to retire. Five million baby boomers turn age 60 each year, Ten Thousand per day, Eight per minute, and scores of them are purchasing property abroad as vacation homes or investment homes. Naturally, many of them are auditioning these homes for potential primary retirement residences.
