Their parents gently get into a quiet retirement after 50.
But today’s over-50s would not like to follow that.
Baby boomers believe that middle age lasts until they are 70,a study has found. They said they felt “old” only after entering their 70th year.
The findings show that in advanced years baby boomers say that they are still young. After getting their pensions(养老金), they are refusing to quietly finish their days as their parents.
Baby boomers, or those born between 1945 and 1963, have been called the luckiest generation ever after they enjoyed rising house prices. They have enough pensions and live happily.
The US study found three quarters of all baby boomers considered themselves to be middle-aged or younger, even if they were in their 60s.
In general, baby boomers found once they reached their 60s, it was not as bad as they thought. With improvements in health care they are able to spend more time with their grandchildren, travel and do the things they have been putting off for years because of work commitments(约束).
Mrs Smith, a baby boomer at 64, said, “I wouldn’t describe myself as old. I know clearly I’m not young.” The former (早前的)editor of a fashion magazine added, “When you hit your 50s, a new sense of freedom starts to grow in your heart.”
