Investors are afraid to say the words 'aging' or 'elderly' or even admit an interest in 'caregiving'. Good luck to the 50 million prospective customers aged 65+ with money to spend. https://t.co/IoxOtGdHIp #babyboomers #technology #caregivers

I predict that there will be a battle to serve this growing population of aging Americans between retail companies like Best Buy, the drug store chains, and the tech giants with devices in the home (Amazon, Google, etc.). Interesting buy! https://t.co/vxXzZxoDhh

Best Buy is serious about serving the older adult market -- this is great news! https://t.co/AlKD89XDU8 #Smartphones #cellphones #AARP
