There's a storm warning on the horizon, known as the silver tsunami, that's calling for lots of gray... gray hair, that is.

And while some are heading off to retirement, many are remaining in the workforce. "Sixty-two is no longer the stepping off point," says Brian McNamara, president of Southworth . He's right. According to the AARP, 69% of Boomers plan to stay on the job beyond the age of 65. Boomers are pushing off retirement for good reasons; we like our jobs, we're still healthy, and we like the social networking. In some cases, however, finances are the reason for staying because investments aren't worth what they were before the economic downturn.
