[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pretty sure if you have a dinner party of 55+ aged Americans they would be similar. Relaxed, looking forward to retirement, focused on family, talking about travel, etc. If you speak to, especially French, people in their late e20s-early 30s they are they have the same burdens as Americans. Work, pension age keeps rising (did you see Paris burning this summer?), access to good health care, complaining about politics. It is more generational than anything else. In fact it is pretty amazing how similar the generations are even though their nationality is completely different. [/quote] American boomers aren’t relaxed and healthy though. They are obese and pumped up with pharmaceuticals and don’t live as long. Everyone is on some kind of blood pressure medication, statin, insulin, bunch of other stuff, has a bad back or bad knees or bad hips and so much of this is weight and lifestyle related. [/quote]
