Meet Rich Poole


Rich Poole co-founded GrownUps in 2006 to provide a community platform for the rapidly growing Internet savvy, active, more mature demographic in NZ.  It's all about finding information and things to do via GrownUps, that help you make best use of your time and money.

This Contribution area looks to provide items of interest and commentary about the local and global 50+ (or in some cases referred to as Boomer demo).

Please send us anything that you feel should be posted here, but we hope this is of interest to show you the huge impact that 50+ currently have and, equally, how much bigger and more influential this is becoming by the day. Just think, more than 5 Kiwis per hour turn 50+ - that's more than 50,000 per year currently! Not to be sneezed at!
