I just read a motivating blog post written by the son of baby boomers. He shares the grim picture facing his parents due to the stock market preformance and their lost retirement savings.
But why was it motivating? It was motivating because he recognized the resilent spirit of his parents when they found other options to supplement thier income like Ebay.
I also admire his sensitivity to many other babyboomers who are not able to physically or mentally seek other options. He writes an excellent blog post and I wanted to share it with my readers.
I am really hoping that one day I can read or hear the story directly from their parents. If only I could interview them. Plus, since hubby and I have jumped into Ebay with all 10 toes I am very, very interested.
So, here is the blog post about Baby Boomers and Ebay.
Rosie,
Thank you for sharing this important post. I agree with you, it is motivating and does speak to the amazing capacity of our generation to move forward with a positive attitude even in the face of adversity.
Times have been tough on a lot of us. But we have always had, and will continue to have, a spirit that is unrestrained by the status quo.
Yay, boomers! May we keep on keepin’ on and make the world better for others and for ourselves!
