Boomers Head into Encore Careers
Traditional retirement seems passé these days. Especially to baby boomers still trying to shore up their nest egg. Still, a recent survey suggests a good majority of them might be choosing the work they do - more with their hearts – instead of their financial prowess. There’s a new class of boomers who are rewiring their work life in order to give back while making a buck. The survey was done by Boomer tracker, Civic Ventures and the MetLife Foundation.
The story highlights some of the challenges boomers will face in following this path such as the need for flexibility, health care coverage and income; it also looks at the rewards of the encore career and better worklife integration.
