What is a Baby Boomer and Who are we?
Baby Boomers are the largest surviving demographic in the history of humanity. Think about what that means. Yeah I know there is a new boom going on, but this isn't a treatise about illegal aliens birthing new citizens daily. This is about us so I'll use the phrase and copyright it if I have to. This is about us. We are large in numbers and in size (pun intended). We have better health care than our parents and grandparents prayed for. There is a pill for everything from high blood pressure to memory enhancement to erectile dysfunction. We have more opportunities for income and employment than our depression era parents could dream about. We explore technology and use to enhance our income and leisure. We had better education than our pro-genitors and most likely better than our children and grandchildren. We have wrinkle cream, liposuction, custom sized boobs and surgically enhanced wieners. We have organ transplants, new knees and hips. We are who we are and darned happy about it. Quantifiably defining Baby Boomers is a tough job. There are even arguments about the proper age of a Baby Boomer. Search engine results solidify birth ages from 1945 to 1964. Survey results were a little different and certainly more interesting. Those born between 1954 and 1964 tend to exclude themselves from the Baby Boomer Mix. I dunno why about that. Probably most likely to distance themselves from those of us who probably were their older brothers and sisters and they want nothing to do with us. As in, "I am NOT a Baby BOOMER, my older sister is one of those and I can't stand her." And wow! Our range of other statistics are incredible. We are 50 yr olds with 10 yr old children. We are 62 yr old great grandparents with custodial rights and privileges. We have children in college and others out making their ways in the world. We are happy and sad for our offspring and provide unconditional love and support. If not already there, we are rapidly chasing down retirement and wondering, what's in it for me? I have intentionally oversimplified the what and who question of Baby Boomers. What and who we are become defined by our unique perspective on individual experiences, adventures and expectations. The topics to follow attempt to better personify and define that which makes Baby Boomers what and who we are. Scroll down past commercial advertisement and begging to continue to next topic. |
