The consumer marketplace has been overwhelmingly youth-obsessed for decades, but this is about to change dramatically – and in ways that will spotlight a traditionally-overlooked upside of aging.

Baby Boomers are transforming aging. This 78 million-strong generation has unrivaled amounts of money to spend, and they control 77% of the total net worth of US households.
