New Service Helps “Sandwich Generation” Boomers Cope With Family and Financial Stresses

Many of those directly targeted for Obama’s new proposals are Baby Boomers, caught in the unique “sandwich generation,” who must care for aging parents while providing financial help and emotional support for their children as well.
[USPRwire, Tue Jan 26 2010] President Barack Obama today announced initiatives designed to benefit Middle-Class Americans. Many of those directly targeted for Obama’s new proposals are Baby Boomers, caught in the unique “sandwich generation,” who must care for aging parents while providing financial help and emotional support for their children as well.
Obama’s plans include a call to allocate $100 million to assist families who care for aging relatives by providing transportation, in-home aids, and adult day care to alleviate some pressure.
The White House initiatives also include expanding tax credits to match retirement savings and increasing aid for families taking care of elderly relatives.
“This program will be useful, but there are many emotional, financial, family, and legal issues which Baby Boomers in this ‘sandwich generation’ are facing, which the Obama initiatives do not address,” says Richard Roll, Founder and President of the Baby Boomers Retirement Network (BBRN). “We are providing an easy-to-use set of tools and resources for Baby Boomers in addressing these unique challenges with our Baby Boomers Retirement Club (BBRC) innovative and popular new service called the Ultimate Retirement Solution Kit.”
Through a 4-Step Process, the BBRC’s service focuses, educates, connects, and adapts Baby Boomers to help them make the best choices for their retirement planning needs (in all areas of their future retirement plans, not just financial planning), while connecting them with the right resources to get the job done.
BBRC’s Ultimate Retirement Solution Kit and 2010 BBRC Platinum Elite Charter Membership were unveiled in response to an overwhelming need for Baby Boomers to have a personalized, time-efficient way to have the information they need in as little as 30 minutes a month.
