The times are changing – just ask boomers. Just when is the survey glass half-full or half-empty? According to a June survey from The Hartford and MIT AgeLab, “50 percent of boomers want to stay in their current home as they age, but most have no plans in place.” Hold on there, just a second, that means HALF of them want to move! How interesting and how antithetical to aging in place! But it was just a year ago that AARP surveyed the 45+ population and found that "almost three-quarters of Baby Boomers ages 45 and older – and effectively nine in ten people 65+ – said they want to stay in their current homes for as long as possible.” That was then and this is now.
WASHINGTON – As part of AARP’s efforts to stimulate innovations that serve the needs and wants of Americans age 50+, the Association announced today the launch of a new program that will give two promising entrepreneurs the time and attention of leading venture capitalists and members of the press, to help turn their visions into reality.
