Boomers on the go – Mark Silverman, Mark’s MovingListen to SpotifyMore than 12 percent of the American population is over the age of 65 and an estimated 1.5 million of these Americans will move into new residences this year. Whether you’re moving to a retirement community or an assisted living facility, or downsizing to a space more suitable for your new lifestyle, the process can be stressful and emotionally draining.
How are moving companies helping make this transition? Our guest in this episode is Mark Silverman of Marks Moving (https://marksmoving.com/). Mark offers kid-glove service moving and storage service to seniors and the sandwich generation. In 1979, Mark was a student at Northeastern University, and while many college students were spending money on their social lives, he needed to spend my money on school. But first, he had to earn it. Eventually, the business became Mark’s sole focus. One Man and a Van became Mark’s Moving & Storage.
Nearly 46 years later, He is still looking for opportunities to help people. Mark also created Mark’s Northeastern Furniture Foundation and collects more than 12 trailer loads of lightly used and new goods each year, and works with Greater Boston non-profits to share that treasure with local families in need. In this episode, he talks about his journey and how he is helping seniors stay on the go.

Frank Lobb, author, The Big Lie in my Healthcare Bill: Why I Don’t Owe What My Insurer Fails to PayListen to SpotifyHealthcare bills have been proven to be “rife” with errors and completely dysfunctional. Yet we are forced to pay up or get dragged into a collection process we are certain to lose while our credit is destroyed.
The Big Lie in My Healthcare Bill: Why I Don’t Owe What My Insurer Fails to Pay by Frank Lobb shows how a simple letter can “NOW” stop one of these fraudulent bills dead in its tracks. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has made it all so easy. Consumers just have to be smart enough to send that simple letter rather than line up as just another one of the sheep to be fleeced.
Frank Lobb is a retired U.S. Navy pilot with a long and distinguished career outside the Navy, including roles as General Manager for DuPont Process Instruments and then for DuPont’s Environmental Services business. After retiring from DuPont, Frank served as a Principal Consultant at Monsanto and then Clean Air Engineering on regulatory law and compliance. It was this extensive background in the law and compliance that allowed Frank to be credited with forcing EPA to scrap three years of work on the Clean Air Act and rewrite the compliance section of the Act around his recommendations. And it was this same background and expertise that allowed Frank to both access and dissect the carefully hidden contractual provisions that the healthcare insurance industry uses to deny the care and coverage patients are owed from their health insurance.
Now 87, Frank, lives on a 200-acre working-farm with Angie his English wife in Chester County Pennsylvania, along with Angie’s 17 ducks and their two English Springer Spaniels. From there, together with their son and son-in-law, they own and operate the leading hardware and supply business in the region.

Richard Stone, PROJECT MAYFLOWERListen to SpotifyStep aboard this “My Generation” podcast segment for the tall tale of the Mayflower II.
The idea of building and sailing a second Mayflower from England to America was an impossible dream. Those behind the idea had no plans, no crew, and no money. There was only a grand vision to thank America for its World War II sacrifices.
Author Richard Stone brings us behind the scenes as he provides anecdotes from his new book Project Mayflower.
A graduate of Harvard (bachelor’s degree in economics) and UCLA (master’s degree in journalism), Stone had a long career as an executive with NBC, HBO/Time, Inc., and ESPN/Disney. In his 300-page book, with more than 60 illustrations, he compellingly describes how the saga of the Mayflower II captured the world’s imagination in the tradition to Mt. Everest’s conquest and the Kon Tiki voyage.
