When you look at the financial side of the picture, the data is even more striking. Contray to popular belief, most people in their later years are not living in poverty. The center for mature consumers studies at the Georgia State University, the 65-plu populations have twice as much per capita income as the average baby boomers and the 55-plus group controls more than 3/4 of this countrys wealth. In addition to this fact, government programs are available for those in need of service but are unable to pay out of their own pockets. The National Association for Home Care estimates that the current population needing assistance ranges from 9 to 11 million. This means that the market of potential clients over 65 in any region may range from 11.2% to as high as 20%.
