PR Writer and Baby Boomer

by Gloria

Well-heeled, well-educated, well-fed (too well-fed?), well-read, well-informed, and well-traveled. Does this describe you? If so, chances are you’re a Baby Boomer. That’s what they say about us these days.

Has your life turned out how you thought it would? Write and tell us who you are, what you do, what you think about. Just click on the Comment link below. Trust me, you’ll be heard! Tons of people read this blog every day.

Tonight we celebrate the launch of Boom! Magazine from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at The Castleton Group. Boom! is the Triangle’s newest lifestyle magazine, targeting the Baby Boomer market. I’m a Boomer myself. I hear that as a group, we have quite a bit of spending power, controlling more than half of the nation’s discretionary income and owning three-quarters of all financial assets. Remember when we were anti-establishment? Those were the days, huh?

Did any of you notice Goldie Hawn on the cover of AARP last month? Wow. Now that’s a wake-up call. And Boom! featured Eric Clapton on its cover. Clapton and Goldie don’t look old. They’re still HOT! Sir Paul McCartney may be 64, but he’s still hot, too.

We boomers redefined culture in the 1960s and 70s, and we are doing the same thing as we age. We’re very good at reinventing ourselves every decade or so—new house, new career, new religion, new spouse … hey, just kidding.
