AIS Media Inc. CEO, Thomas Harpointner, was interviewed by Frederick News Post to discuss the exploding trend of Baby Boomers retiring and flocking towards online businesses. His statements included:

Boomers are almost 80 million strong and are the first generation of seniors who are truly comfortable with online life, according to Thomas Harpointner, chief executive officer of AIS Media Inc., a developer and marketer of web applications and services for small and mid-sized businesses.

“People are living longer and healthier lives, and they are not just retiring and sitting at home at age 65 to 66,” Harpointner said.
“The Internet has allowed baby boomers, who may have been averse to the risk prior to the web boom, to start an online business today,” he said.

"They have been able to make a new decision (about starting a business) based on new information," he said he said in a phone interview. "That is inspiring to most boomers."
