RetiredRoommates.com Launches Creative New Site Aimed at the Retired Population.

Tarpon Springs, FL, January 22, 2005 --(PR.com)-- RetiredRoommates.com launches a web site dedicated to facilitating communication among retirees so that they might meet to live together, travel together, and trade homes for vacationing. RetiredRoommates.com is a unique Internet matching service designed to provide mature singles the opportunity to:

· Pool resources by sharing living arrangements.
· Find a compatible travel partner.
· Trade vacation homes with another RetiredRoommate.

RetiredRoommates.com has identified a significant market opportunity, that is, to provide mature consumers with two of the most precious commodities in today’s modern society:

· Companionship
· Life-enhancing experiences.

In 2000 there were 35 million people age 65 and older, up by 3 million from 1990. By 2025 the number of seniors is expected to double, up to 70 million. In little more than a decade almost half of our adult population will be over 50. This demographic will be the largest segment of the population for the next 30 years. They are the most diverse, healthiest older generation in history. They want to live healthier, happier, more productive lives as they age, and trends show this will happen. Life expectancy has increased, and there is a trend toward early retirement. Realizing that they have decades of healthy life left, and that many can live more cheaply than a few, they will opt to live very chic, downsized lives – together. In other words, people are living longer and they don’t want to live alone. RetiredRoommates.com is designed facilitates this coming together of separate and diverse lifestyles, creating a society of healthy and active and mature adults living together.

These retirees are young at heart and have a yen for enlightened travel. They are searching for meaning in their lives, and have always evaluated their lives based on personal fulfillment. With a desire to enjoy their leisure time, they want to have the best lifestyles. This segment of the population is also going on the Internet at a rate faster than any other. Comfortable with advisers who present information through electronic bulletin boards and e-mail, they want to pick and choose what they want to do when they want to do it, and RetiredRoommates.com offers them this opportunity with our Travel Companion and Vacation Home Trade features.

At RetiredRoommates.com travelers can find a suitable and compatible partner to travel with and/or people in different parts of the country with which to trade vacation homes for vacationing. For instance, do you own a home in the South and would like to spend some time in the summer in the North? Or do you live near the ocean and would like to spend time in the mountains? At RetiredRoommates.com you can find your travel or vacation home Roommate. Our innovative technology will allow users from any geographic location to participate full in the online mature community meeting and engaging other retirees all over the nation, and potentially all over the world.

Visitors to the site can search and view profiles by location, sex, age, and targeted characteristics before deciding to register and post a profile. When posting a profile they can select their area or areas of interest: Roommate, Travel Companion, or Vacation Trade. Free for a limited time, new members will experience automatic matches, double blind e-mailing as well as a place to post an ad for a living companion, travel companion, vacation home trade, or all three. It is only when contact is made that the member registers and pays a fee.

RetiredRoommates.com seeks to steadily increase services offered by creating innovative, effective content to keep the web site dynamic and interactive.
