Teaching Retirees How to Blog - Retirement Green

These days, retirement income just doesn’t go as far as it used to. In fact, many people have watched their retirement savings disappear during the recession. I recently read an article in BusinessWeek about this very subject.

As a result of this, many retirees are realizing they need some kind of supplemental income to cover them through the retirement years. Some get jobs at Home Depot or Target, while others turn to blogging. Yes, blogging. Many retirees are starting to realize they can make a little extra money each day by publishing a blog, and writing about topics they enjoy.

That’s the idea behind Retirement Green, a consulting service that teaches retirees how to blog effectively — and earn money doing it. In addition to offering one-on-one training and consultation calls, the website offers tips on blogging for revenue purposes.
