Al and Tipper Gore’s news of separation last June came as a shock to most American. No wonder, since it was about 40 years of married life for this high profile couple prior to the news and nobody’s expecting it to end like that. Well apparently, nobody except for hundreds of married seniors worldwide who must have understood what happened and what went wrong. It is important to note that [...]

Seems like working at home is on the rise as I have been receiving questions from my senior friends regarding this. There are many whats, hows and ifs, however, if you are quite familiar on how computers and the internet work, you are most likely to find your niche—or your own place—in no time! For business-minded seniors who have limited startup budget or perhaps looking for a more flexible way [...]

With all those medical mumbo jumbo our doctors have been talking about, we often find ourselves relying on the simplest of words. For example, if we’re told of atopic dermatitis, we are most likely to conclude that it has something to do with our skin, since there is that “derma” word on it. If your doctor is kind enough, he will tell you that atopic dermatitis is actually, in layman’s [...]

When it comes to spa treatments, seniors tend to be very specific with what they want and results are very important as it should be visible and instant! If not, expect these seniors to not come back to the spa facility or try that treatment for as long as they live! Hence, it is very important for spa owners to create a good “menu” of what their establishment has to [...]

Seniors who are dabbling with the internet long enough to know that internet shopping is really the “in” thing nowadays must have experienced once or twice the joys of online payments. I must admit, the first time I experienced a successful online transaction, I was instantly hooked! From then on, I tried to resist the temptation of buying online. Just consider this:  prices are almost cut down in half, convenience [...]

If you are going to ask me, keeping your personal health records intact and within reach at all times is not all about being organized but more of a convenience on your part. As you grow old, you will notice that every visit to your doctor will mean an additional health question or inquiry or perhaps a test that you need to follow through. If you are like me who [...]

Mobility is one of the most important things in a senior’s life. It represents freedom and at the same time, independence—the ability to do whatever you want, whenever you want without having to depend on someone else. That is why we refuse to hand over our car keys even if we’re too blind to see road signs and mistakenly parked the car at the neighbor’s garage the other day. Over [...]

Lucky are those who stayed with their partners for such a long time that it already became impossible to imagine life without the other. Some may look at it with a disbelieving eye and will try to find loopholes or signs that the marriage is not what it seems. Then there are those who can only stare with envy and wish theirs would also last that long. I say I [...]

Going on a cruise indeed highlights your retirement life. In fact, it’s every American’s dream to join one even those who are not yet—or still far from—retiring. However, due to time constraints and of course, budget, going on a cruise remains to be a thing you do after you retire from the workforce. Problem is, cruising this late in life usually puts seniors in greater risk especially in terms of [...]

What I really , really love about computers, internet and indeed the world wide web is the ability to share valuable information without having to go out there and work your way against obstacles. I will tell you about the first time I fell inlove with the technology: back then, there’s no internet, just your simple desktop computer and few gigantic, impossible looking laptops. What amazed me was the convenient [...]
