Seniors’ Guide to Saving Money

Saving money is not an issue too puzzling to understand. We all know how to do it, we can even go as far as creating a doable plan which suits our lifestyle best—and even put it to practice once in a while. However, it’s quite hard to actually stick with the plan especially if you’re not trained to do that at all! I’ve read from somewhere that saving is so [...]

More On Tax Breaks!

I’m never good at bookkeeping! I can never understand those ledgers that need to be filled up with dizzying numbers even if my own life depends on it! I would rather pay somebody to do it for me if I have the money. I even went as far as looking for ways to “outsource” it i.e hiring somebody from afar to keep tabs for me—again, if only I have that [...]

Abused Caregivers?

We often hear about caregivers abusing seniors but we seldom hear about caregivers getting abused by their ward. Unfortunately, it happens– to a point that no one ever acknowledges it nor believes their tales. Patterns of abused caregivers are fairly the same. They end up feeling they are the only ones who can do the job—better than anyone else in the world. They will reject any kind of help even [...]

I would like to think of it as an adapted lifestyle in which you should leave behind bad habits to embrace a life that is healthy—bland food and all!

Phishing 101

I’ve been in the internet for such a long time that I sometimes find myself applying internet lingo to my everyday life and yes, conversations—much to the dismay of my senior friends. I won’t dare blame them, it’s really hard to keep up with how the internet speaks unless you personally experienced them. Ever encountered these words: lol, lmao and ikr? Completely, insanely incomprehensible! But for your aging mind’s information, [...]

Earthquake Safety Tips for Seniors

Time and again, I post safety tips for seniors. It’s because I believe people my age are usually in dire risk in emergency situations like earthquakes and fire. Aside from that, due to limited range of motion, seniors were left behind most of the time. Although I really couldn’t blame their caregivers, considering basic human instinct to save themselves first kicking in, helpless seniors are often left to protect themselves [...]

Age Discrimination: How to Handle At Work

Actually, age discrimination works at two opposite ends of the spectrum. Age discrimination also occurs when a person is considered as “too young” or “underage” by the person in charge. However, seniors are most associated with age discrimination since its effects are most felt within this age group. Aside from that, young people can always seek help from their parents or guardians but a senior having problems with age discrimination [...]
