What is Booming Lives? Richard Owen created this Club for the Baby Boomer generation and all those who think that retirement should be more than just weekly visits to the garden centre! The Club aims to enhance retirement thinking. In particular to break down old stereotypes about what life in the 21st century will be like for the baby boomer generation How does it work? Ordinary Membership is free. The Club organizes Members’ Forums where members will hear talks from experts on the transition to retirement including financial planning, pensions and generally how to enhance life after full time work. They will be able to ask questions that are relevant to them and engage with other members who are facing the same retirement decisions. Our experts are drawn from a group of paying professionals and businesses members. The Club also organizes smaller interest groups that target more in-depth discussion of matters of interest to members. Topics already discussed include long term investing, pension drawdown and non-executive Board positions with companies, charities, schools and the NHS. There are also weekly email bulletins to help direct your decision making and alert you to the latest thinking on pensions, retirement and lifestyle. We also have a group discussion page on Facebook.
