The Best Life
Remember the old saw, only as old as you feel? It needs to be replaced. Everyone, and I mean everyone, has some badfeeling moments as they cross into their 60s, 70s and 80s. No, the new catchphrase for aging, particularly among the aging boomers, should be, only as old as you act.
Kay Van Norman, an aging and wellness consultant (when she not riding her horse in and around Bozeman, Mont.) remembers a couple of events in her life about eight years ago that marked a branch in the road of her own development and attitudes toward aging.
Selfdirected investing is, managing one's own portfolio sense for savvy retirees who want more control and lower investment fees. It's especially logical for the newly riskadverse: people who are not trying to break the bank but protect their nest eggs from breaking, as many did during the market meltdown. But taking direct responsibility for your investments is not for everyone. Follow this guide to see if there might be at least a sliver of Warren Buffett in you.
What's y our investment IQ? You need not be another Sage of Omaha to be a great manager of your own portfolio. But you do need a basic understanding of stocks, bonds and alternative investments. "You need to put as much energy and investment into your own education as you do into your investing," says Lee Barba, head of thinkorswim Group, an online broker that offers extensive education programs through its Investools affiliate. The tax consequences of your investment actions are often the deciding factor in making the best choice, so you need to know the tax treatment of your investmentaccount contributions, investment earnings, and distributions. You'll also need time to get comfortable with the language of buying and selling, especially since most of your investment activity will be taking place between you and a computer screen.
Medicare Part B, which covers physician and outpatient services, will most likely levy no premium increase on about 30 million participants in 2010 and perhaps 2011 as well. Their good fortune, however, will be effectively paid for by the program's 10 million or so other participants. They will see premiums rise by a projected 8 percent in 2010 and another 13 percent jump in 2011. This discrepancy is an ironic consequence of a piece of good news, namely that very low levels of inflation are expected to result in no costoflivingadjustment (COLA) for Social Security recipients in 2010 and, quite likely,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 2011.
Basic Medicare includes Part A coverage of hospital services, fully paid for by the federal government, and Part B, where the government foots 75 percent of the cost and participants must pay the remaining 25 percent, in the form of insurance premiums. Basic Part B premiums are $96.40 a month. Additional amounts, ranging as high as $211.90 a month, are charged on top of the basic premium, beginning with people who make more than $85,000 (individual tax return) and $170,000 (joint filers) a year.
The Boomerater (tm) Report, our weekly collaboration with online baby boomer resource Boomerater, looks at valuable tips on being a new boomer grandparent and some great ideas to get prepared for this new role.
Q. We're about to become firsttime grandparents and would like to hear tips from others to make this is the best experience for our new grandchild and our son and daughterinlaw. We have a good relationship with the kids and live close by. I want to be supportive and helpful, but don't want to overstep boundaries in my role as motherinlaw.
The downturn has stopped accelerating, stocks have perked up, and the banking system is healthy enough to withstand more economic adversity (with a manageable amount of additional taxpayer money). Economic reports are being sifted for signs of "green shoots" that signal economic recovery. On a personal level, it's time to come out of our bunkers, survey the damage, and get on with our lives. In financial terms, picking up the pieces may not be a pleasant exercise, especially for people in or near retirement age (or what they had hoped would be retirement age). But it needs to be done, and here are six steps to follow:
Understand your new reality. The future will not be like the past. At best, many experts agree, it will take at least two years to recover market losses, and it could take a decade if the recovery is slow. Most retirementplan participants are not investorsthey're savers. These investors never intended to actively manage their 401(k) and IRA holdings. Instead, they aimed to buy and hold, watch their investments grow over time, and then use the resulting nest egg to support a pleasant and lengthy retirement. Even during the worst of the market meltdown, the big mutual fund companies report that retirementplan participants kept their funds in place and continued making contributions. Now, it's time to take a clearheaded view of account holdings and make a realistic judgment of your new retirement glide path. ING has an easytouse calculator,and there are lots of others. Their underlying assumptions may differ, so use a few to develop a consensus outlook that feels right to you.
John Erickson has the conviction of success. More than 22.000 people live in his 20 retirement communities in 11 states. He opened the first outside of Baltimore in 1983, at a time when large, apartmentoriented facilities were considered unappealing by many experts. Today, Erickson Retirement Communities has grown into one of largest Continuing Care and Retirement Community (CCRC) operators, and is widely considered at the top of the industry in quality and consumer appeal. Erickson himself has reached traditional retirement age but clearly has no interest in slowing down.
Erickson's facilities are big but broken down into multiple clubhouses, lowrise apartment buildings and interconnected facilities that permit residents to walk the entire complex without going outside. As with other CCRCs, residents have a continuum of living and care options depending on their physical conditions and medical needs. The most common purchasers are healthy couples in their midtolate 70s who move into independent living apartments and continue to keep their cars. Over time, they likely will need increasing amounts of medical care and can find assistedliving and more advanced nursing care within their community. Most expenses are covered with a single monthly payment and the initial purchase price of the apartment is refundable to the buyers or their heirs.
The annual hair shirt report of Social Security trustees was released on Tuesday. To no one's surprise, our national retirement and health benefit programs are headed for perdition even more quickly than they were last year. Due to the recession, the effective bankruptcy date is 2037 for what's technically called the OldAge and Survivors, and Disability Insurance (OASDI) Trust Funds. That's four years earlier than the forecast in last year's report no mean feat in only one year. Program expenses exceed revenues beginning in 2016 that's only seven years away, folks and all assets are exhausted 21 years later.
And this, sadly, was the good news.
HBO launched its ambitious documentary, The Alzheimer's Project, on Mother's Day. The series is being aired on four consecutive evenings. If you don't subscribe to HBO you can view the programs at the HBO web site, along with a lot of background and educational materials.
Alzheimer's is a tough disease, on all levels. The often lengthy process of seeing a loved one's personality and memories literally disappearing before your eyes is upsetting to everyone and devastating to some. It's not the kind of thing you want to bring out of the closet and examine. And when you do, it's not the kind of thing you want to keep out in the open. The emotions are too raw, too painful.
The banks have had their stress tests, and it looks like they'll get the relief the need. What about the rest of us? Haven't we been pretty stressed as well? The Boomerater Report, our weekly collaboration with online baby boomer resource Boomerater, explores some great online discount travel resources that will help you take that welldeserved break.
Q. I'm on a budget but still need to rejuvenate with time away from my everyday routine. Looking for affordable vacation ideas, good deals, discount Web sites, etc. Especially interested in southern states and the Atlantic coast, but if I find out about a great deal to Europe or the Caribbean, I'd go for it. Can you help me?
A. Cruises are a great deal right now. I live in Miami, so I don't have to fly to get to the ship. You choose the destination and the services you want. You can also define a special occasion and price range. Once you fill out the trip request, Tripology contacts travel specialists who have expertise in the type of trip you want (in my case, cruises). They each put together a customized itinerary and contact you with the options. Because they are competing for your business, they will work hard to come up with the best trip in your price range.
