I started working in my teens and am still going at it. Just because we reach a certain number does not mean we have to retire. With our knowledge and experiences, we can continue to grow businesses and mentor others to become greater than we ever were. That is why I am writing this column. My goal is to help others. Even if just one person reads my column and it helps change how they view the world, writing this column was worth it.

As you get older, you get a better perspective on life and I thought it was about time I shared what I have learned with others, so that is why I decided to begin writing this column. Whereas I thought I was teaching my children and grandchildren throughout their lives, I finally realized that they were actually teaching me. So, combining what I have learned from others and my own curiosity is the basis for my work. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I do writing it.

Being a Baby Boomer does not mean I must feel old, because I don’t. These last couple of decades have been some of the most gratifying times in my life. My philosophy is I am not getting older; I am getting better. And through my column I want to share with you the real pleasures of Aging and how at our age there is just so much more we can do than when we were younger. If you agree with me or disagree with me on what I write, let me know, so you too can become part of my column.
