Long Term Care and the Sandwich Generation



Long term care is the 800 pound gorilla within the living room. I hear about it in the line in the supermarket, in the elevator, at the mall, at church as well as on videos. Everyone my age is facing it, and it isn't ours we're facing, today.

I am of the age bracket known as the boomer or sandwich generation. Sandwich meaning we have responsibilities for multiple members of the family. However, we are not the first to be confronted with this phenomenon, when you are boomers, we're possibly the first to add a reputation to this huge predicament.

Boomers have altered the paradigms that we address dilemmas in lots of arenas and I think we'll rewrite our understanding on this one.

Here are a few from the problems.

Our wonderful health care system, good food and several modern conveniences have led to a life expectancy which is more than ever. Therefore during the last of our healthy and productive years, whenever we ought to be saving that last little bit of money we will need later on, or paying off our mortgages, or recuperating from losses in the stock market, traveling or enjoying our grandchildren, a lot of us have parents who are living, despite the fact that less strong as they were in the past, are still healthy. At the same time we've adult children who are building their own futures and families and want just a little help now and then.

While reflecting upon the previous generations and just how they took proper care of each other, I found the realization our ancestors, in addition to living closer together, had businesses of their own, some of us today have careers that take us for an office, factory, hospital or school building. Our grandparents were active participants within the free enterprise system owning farms, stores, ranches, or some other type of business. The reason so many of us are having trouble, is that we don't own our very own businesses. Not many jobs offer flexibility of time and place to permit involvement in multigenerational obligations and privileges.

That is why I began looking for a career that will permit me to work as much as my Type A personality requires and doing this around the needs of a multigenerational family.

What so long as opportunity to me?

It was the web and achieving an internet business. Having an internet business gives flexibility of both some time and space to be involved in the lives of the 92-year-old or perhaps a 6-year-old and each age in-between.

Building your personal business in internet marketing will permit you to be in which you have to be when you really need to be there along with having the ability to support yourself while doing this. Whatever product you're selling, working on-line opens many avenues of flexibility for you.
