Welcome!

You bought this book to find out if there are problems (and opportunities!) that come with aging. Problems you havent anticipated. Opportunities you might want to explore.

Congratulations! Your instincts are correct.

They ARE out to get you!

Dont kid yourself; aging aint for sissies! You need to protect yourself from:

• Crooked judges, attorneys and doctors some of whom have teamed up to declare seniors incompetent just so they can steal your money
• Big Pharma who has harmed many and killed some seniors by selling us drugs they have never even tested on people our age
• Nursing homes who can imprison us against our will and drug us when we object to make us more manageable with a sign-off from doctors to whom they pay big bucks
• Nosy neighbors who think they know best how we should live
• Adults who dismiss all older people as senile and a drain on society some even suggesting we should happily allow ourselves to be killed off just so business doesnt suffer.

Let me be your guide during your journey. For the past three years, Ive investigated exactly these problems to find the best options for you as the editor of SeniorDefender.net . As such, I pursued two goals:

1. Protect seniors from all the crap that can land on us especially crap you might not see coming.
2. Open seniors eyes to all the great upside to aging an upside barely mentioned in the traditional press (see right below)

You can re-invent old age the way YOU want it!

The most amazing, wonderful thing about aging is you get to make all the decisions! There are as many paths in aging as there are unique fingerprints everyone is different.

The problem with that is were not used to this kind of freedom. From the time were a kid were told what to do, when to do it, and how to do it. This continues through school and into the workplace.

So when seniors retire most have no idea what they would like to do.

The specter of all that empty free time just going on and on scared the heck out of me just as it may scare you. It kept me working full time until I was 73 years old. It also caused me to research the heck out of what opportunities are out there. Research Ill share with you in these pages. Research that finally reassured me retirement would be worth doing.

How do you find what would bring you joy in your life? What would make you wake up eager for the day to start? You will need to:

• Have Fun! Whats the point of retiring if you cant bring more joy into your life? Youll find suggestions to jump start new ways you may have fun. (And for some of you sorry, but playing golf every day wont be enough by itself. Youll want more!)
• Contribute to society! Theres nothing that ruins most lives as quickly as feeling you are sitting around waiting to die. You will want something that makes you feel important. Something where your lifetime expertise is recognized as being of value to others. Something that lets you feel good because youre doing good for others.
• Friends, family, love & sex! We vary greatly in the amount of each of these that we want in our lives. Some want to spend almost all their time on these and others figure an hour a day is plenty. Well look at how to get as much as you want.

Money & health problems

Yes, there are limits when we age. But weve always had limits. How many of us at 20 wished the gene pool had made us smarter, better looking, thinner, faster, stronger, richer, etc.? What made our lives successful was how we dealt with those limits. We changed what we could that was important to us, we learned to work around what we couldnt change and we made the best we could of our gifts.

Its no different when you age. Its just the limits are different. They will be mostly health and money limits.

You cope the same way. You change what you can and what is most important to you. And you learn to work around what you cant change.

Youll find lots of help for both changing and for coping all inside this book.

Part I

Looks

Its hard aging in a culture that worships youth, but there is reason for some hope. As the Baby Boomers age, society will find it harder to ignore older people. Advertisers will finally have to target us for ads other than adult diapers, hearing aids, wheel chairs and dentures. We will become less invisible.

When it comes to our looks, seniors typically pick one of these choices:

1. Fight Aging Tooth & Nail: Dye that hair, lift that face, and work that bod. One cant deny the attraction of this strategy. Just look at Jane Fonda in the first four seasons of Frankie & Grace .
