Getting A Second Chance! How Great Is This?

December 29, 2015 by Lynda Kenny 10 Comments

Getting A Second Chance! How Great Is This?Getting A Second Chance! How Great Is This?

There is an old saying that you never get a second chance at a first impression! This is true,

When it comes to baby boomers there could be a new saying. You are getting a second chance…….now what?

Yes, now what?

When you step back and think about it you really do have a second chance to go out and create a whole new life if that’s what you want. I think it’s fair to say that many of us did not necessarily achieve everything we wanted in the first part of our life.

Okay that is behind us, so what are we going to do now?

Make More Money

Money is not always the most important thing to baby boomers, but when you view your new life do you see one that’s going to take more money to achieve it? I think we could all do more in the later stages of our life if we had more money.

The question is how can you make more money? Here are four possible ways.

1. Sell things you do not need.

This is not a long term solution, but we’ve all accumulated things we no longer need and those could be cash in our bank account.

2. Get a part-time job.

This could actually be a good solution for you, both in terms of the money that you earn, as well as for your attitude and health. It’s great to be able to get up every day and have something to do and get paid for it.

3. Start a second career.Getting A Second Chance! How Great Is This?

There’s a website called 50+ marketplace where they talk about 70 being the new 50. It’s not unusual for people to start a whole new second career because your age does not have to hold you back from doing that.
Check out 50+ Market Place right here (A US site)  I am unable to find a good UK one at the moment although I keep searching.

4. Start your own home based business.

If you’ve read my blog at all you know this is the route that I’ve chosen to take. It’s a great way to make more money, and control your time while doing it.

The key point I want to get across to you right now is regardless of your current situation you now have a second chance to change that. This is a great opportunity, your second chance and one that you don’t want to blow (so to speak!)

By the way, here is a site that features other Baby Boomer Sites where you might find interesting topics to help you with your second chance….Baby Boomer Blogs

    Hey Linda :)
    Awesome tips and what great ideas for what to do if you are looking for a “second chance” in your life :) Personally, I am working on my home business because now in my second half of my life I want to live my dream life and live on my own terms, with the freedom to have no more financial worries ever again, and do the things that I did not do in the first half ;)

    Thanks for sharing these awesome tips!!

    Everyday that you wake up is a 2nd chance. You gave some really great examples on things you can do. Number 4 being my favorite. Love this post Lynda! Thank you for sharing.
