Morris Massey did amazing presentations on how each 10 year lfe cycle produced behavior that was fairly consistent year in and year out. We are biproducts of where were were when we were, but is that true as much for boomers? Personally, i think aging boomers will have less consistencies and higher expectations. We won't fit in in a single mold or in one box. As we enter age restricted communities, we will want to express ourselves in a variety of ways which ultimately will begin to reshape some of these communities to look different than they have in the past, It should be a fun ride and anyone with a sense of adventure should be excited by the choices out there...that is what retirement should be.
