Although most believe that today’s generation has a high rate of entrepreneurship activity, it is the baby boomer generation that has the highest rate, according to a recent Baltimore Sun article. Judah Ronch, interim dean of the Erickson School, is not surprised by the risk-taking attitude of the boomers. “There is a sense of ‘I will not age according to the stereotypes,’ and part of that is ‘I’m not going to retire,’ ” Ronch said. “They’re approaching aging as the next step of development as opposed to the next period of decline.”
The article, “Boomers Go Venturing,” ran Wednesday, July 29.
