Some of the struggles facing baby boomers today that are living on a fixed income.

RISING HEALTHCARE COSTS

Rx drugs

Medical services

Increasing premiums

All consume a significant portion of our income

LIMITED SAVINGS. Many baby boomers didn't have access to retirement plans during their working years, leaving us with limited savings to rely on.

FIXED S.S. BENEFITS...these benefits are not keeping pace with inflation or increasing healthcare costs making it hard to maintain their standard of living.

HIGH HOUSING EXPENSES... Rent/mortgage payments and property maintaince costs can be substantial especially if they are living in a high cost area.

DEBT... Baby homer may still be paying a mortgage off or credit card debt or loans that put a strain on our budgets

UNEXPECTED EXPENSES... Emergency home repairs or medical bills not covered by insurance can quickly deplete our savings.

LIMITED JOB OPPORTUNITIES ...age discrimination can make it challenging for baby boomers to find employment or earn additional income navigating these challenges require careful budgeting accessing community services resources and sometimes making tough financial decisions.

I became a young living member in Oct of 2015. My husband was getting ready to retire, and we were about to lose our health coverage. I wanted something other then having to depend on the medical industry. I discovered young living and never looked back!! I have saved me and my family thousands of dollars and countless hours in dr. And pharmacy visits . I knew not every event that happens requires a dr visit, and I wanted to know how I can reduce those visits and save some money.
I don't consider myself a medical professional, but, I do know how to read and look up information and after discovering some tools and books to look thru I discovered the magical powers of young living essential oils. Instead of spending hundreds of dollars on posion ivy medication for my husband, I opened a book, looked up what I can use for posion ivy, followed the directions and we were both amazed at the results!
Then I started looking for ways to sleep better, have less anxiety, make my home beyond beyond fresh and clean and save a lot of time and money. We now are a family that supports the systems of our bodies instead of reacting to preventable events! We learned how to support our immune systems before the pandemic hit, and made it thru that season without so much as a sniffle!
I believe once you get started using these safe, chemical free, nontoxic products you won't go back to using the toxic stuff.
You will feel so empowered protecting your home and family from all the "yuk" out there! I want you to learn how to take back control of your health and wellness so you won't panic over any "bug" going around out there. We look forward to helping you on your journey to health and wellness!
