The
key members of the Retirement - Matters team are:
MELANIE JACOBS
Melanie is 58 and has been a successful proprietor of an IFA business in
Hove, Sussex for the last 26 years. She has 2 grown up daughters and 2
adorable granddaughters.
The idea of Retirement Matters came to her after she realised that whilst
the internet gave all the information possible, finding it was another
matter!
DAVID BUSKELL
57 year old businessman David is also a successful proprietor of an IFA
business in Peacehaven, Sussex. David has 2 grown up children, 1 granddaughter, and one day he hopes to travel the world,
emulating his children's earlier experiences!
The website was started after Melanie and David realised that there was
nothing simple on the Internet for those retiring or of a 'certain age',
i.e. the age before computers were even thought of! Do you remember when
Spam was something horrid for tea, surfing was a risqué activity and a
virus meant the Dr didn't know what was wrong, but at least you had a
couple days off! They wanted to provide
a one-stop website which could provide information re other websites of
interest, which was easy to use and didn't need a technical brain - you
can come to this site and use it as a comfortable base. Their aim is
to build links to other sites, provide interesting content, and then
hopefully sell the website to an organisation which has the time and
vision to see the opportunities and potential for their 'baby'!
Their main business is still financial services which is time-consuming
but this website has provided hours of happy surfing and along the way
both David and Melanie have become more efficient at clicking and surfing!
