With the oldest baby boomers turning 65 this year, the challenges and joys of aging have taken center stage. In this special report, designed for boomers, their parents and their children, Forbes covers all the angles. We explore the keys (both mental and physical) to healthy aging; smart ways to save and insure for future healthcare costs; and how a deficit-plagued nation will care for its elders. There are upbeat stories here—including pithy thoughts on turning 65 and a report on spry centenarians. But there’s also a dose of reality and loads of practical advice.
