Message From the Publisher
When I reached 65, I realized that approximately 10,000 Baby Boomers will turn 65 every day over the next four years. In addition, over 50 million people are already 65+. I believe our generation deserves its own free, ad-supported, daily lifestyle newsletter with interesting news and fun facts created just for us. I hope you enjoy!
