Grey vs. Brown

This long article is well worth reading, even if all you read is the first couple of paragraphs. I've been telling friends forever that when our group of Baby Boomers gets too old for anyone to want to deal with us, and our general selfishness and live-for-today attitude catches up to us (in other words, when all the money is gone), they're just going to have to build row after row of barracks out in Utah or Montana or someplace where nobody really lives to stash all our sorry old broke down a**es. We'll be living in barracks. Seriously, what else are they going to do with us? There aren't enough icebergs . . .

On the 4th I pushed a young architecture student into designing affordable recycled housing for baby boomers who haven't saved. And I also suggested the RV world is overdue for a revolution. Can you imagine transporting your house wherever you wanted to be? Half the year in Carmel, half the year in Marblehead? With a stop-off in Taos?
