The Emergence of Baby Boomers

There is a population on the rise: the baby boomer generation.  With this emergence, there is immense opportunity in many areas of the economy.  The rise of baby boomers demand destinations for retirement.  Many baby boomers are more than willing to pay top dollar to retire in an area that provides all the amenities and aspects that fulfill their desires.

One top city chosen for retirement is San Diego.  Being a native of San Diego, I can easily see why this is a top choice.  The city is beautiful, the weather is nearly perfect, and just the overall atmosphere and culture put your mind at ease.  It's a big city but the people are so warm and welcoming.  

 Just another day in sunny San Diego.  Taken from the Coronado bridge.

Medical Tourism: A Huge Opportunity for Emerging Nations

Some of the current trends of emerging nations are into developing medical tourism industries.  

Thailand has been on the game and is increasingly becoming popular.  

The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) has specifically outlined everything you need to know about medical treatments in Thailand.  

Treatments include cosmetic/plastic surgery, lasik, dental, and other treatments that are not offered in the U.S. such as stem cell treatment for beauty rejuvenation.     

Tourists are saving immensely on medical costs while still enjoying high quality healthcare.  

Countries likes Thailand also do not have the strict FDA regulations and threats of malpractice lawsuits that are a big influence in the American Healthcare industry.

ObamaCare. Switching things up.

Varying opinions regarding the ObamaCare permeate in almost every conversation.  

Fear of the overall cost is the general feeling.  

Medical Insurances such as United Health Group (UHG), Highmark, Blue Cross and Blue Shield are already starting to bolster their brand by opening centers in the mall, the way other companies sell clothes or electronics.  

The staff offers help in different languages, checks blood pressure, and drug interactions while potential buyers peruse through the medical plan.  

Open enrollment commences this coming October.
