Pages : 130
Book Description
The Great Recession hit older Americans harder than any other group. Savings and Investments built up over a lifetime were suddenly wiped out or needed to be used to make ends meet. Following massive layoffs, older Americans discovered they were no longer valued by employers and found it difficult, if not impossible, to find a decent job. Many took minimum wage jobs at a time in their lives when such exertion was hazardess to their health. They simply had no choice. I know. I was one of them. As I searched for employment using the Internet I saw a number of websites that needed simple tasks done. Not big money at first but money easily made from my home computer. I then discovered I could make a steady income by giving input on new product launches, placing ads on my website, testing new products and a number of other easy tasks that required little time or effort but generated a steadily increasing income. Within six months I no longer needed a job. I was making all the money I needed.

The Age of Dignity

Publisher: New Press, The
ISBN: 1620970465
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 149
Book Description
One of Time’s 100 most influential people “shines a new light on the need for a holistic approach to caregiving in America . . . Timely and hopeful” (Maria Shriver). In The Age of Dignity, thought leader and activist Ai-jen Poo offers a wake-up call about the statistical reality that will affect us all: Fourteen percent of our population is now over sixty-five; by 2030 that ratio will be one in five. In fact, our fastest-growing demographic is the eighty-five-plus age group—over five million people now, a number that is expected to more than double in the next twenty years. This change presents us with a new challenge: how we care for and support quality of life for the unprecedented numbers of older Americans who will need it. Despite these daunting numbers, Poo has written a profoundly hopeful book, giving us a glimpse into the stories and often hidden experiences of the people—family caregivers, older people, and home care workers—whose lives will be directly shaped and reshaped in this moment of demographic change. The Age of Dignity outlines a road map for how we can become a more caring nation, providing solutions for fixing our fraying safety net while also increasing opportunities for women, immigrants, and the unemployed in our workforce. As Poo has said, “Care is the strategy and the solution toward a better future for all of us.” “Every American should read this slender book. With luck, it will be the future for all of us.” —Gloria Steinem “Positive and inclusive.” —The New York Times “A big-hearted book [that] seeks to transform our dismal view of aging and caregiving.” —Ms. magazine
