With the election upon us - how does it effect Seniors?

I have to look at this situation from two perspectives. Firstly, how do their positions effect me and second, how does it effect my kids and grand kids. If I am looking for someone who will make my FIXED INCOME go further. Barack Obama is our man. His tax plan will ensure that I am able to meet my monthly bills. I will be taxed less under his plan than I am under McCains.

The Future: Having traveled extensively abroad, I have to say - the Republicans have done so much damage to the US image in the rest of the world. We need change. The hatred around the world is anything but the image of Freedom we worked so hard to create. The creation of enemies happens with any division of wealth. But our current situation 'W'as built around the need for foreign oil. Investing so much in attempting to control the middle east - will be the undoing of our financial futures. Barack is the only one who understand that Alternative energy is the future and will create jobs for our young and motivated.

Not sure your like me - but our Country is in a terrible situation. Putting another C student in charge for another 4 years is like purgatory.

Go Barack!

With sky-rocketting fuel, food - staple costs - it is going to be ever more difficult for seniors to make ends meet. I am not suggesting a bailout - but boomers need to understand that their money will not go as far as they thought it might. You need to work hard at your finances to ensure they will last you. Remember to stay in the market longer - don't just pull your money out and pile it into an annuity. Mutual Funds and Index funds will protect you from heavy inflation.

It is important to make an effort to save where ever you can.

Having spent the last week with some friends in a Florida Retirement community. I can see the attraction with the easy going lifestyle of sun, golf and relaxation~! There are some wonderful discounts to be had right now in the Florida housing market. Yes it seems pretty blique right now. But better times are ahead. We all remember the housing concerns of the early 70's and how the market rebounded. I have heard from my friends who tell me they are concerned that the turnaround may take a long time - for this reason they aren't entering the market. Retirement properties are all about what it affords - atleast for the boomer crowd.

As investors, you may have bigger plans. But this should be the time that all seniors are converting their 401K's and principal residences; smaller condos and sun belt accomodations. There are some great values - you should be aware of this.
