What we’re about
It's the best time ever to be in our sixties! So much to do and learn and we all have a story to tell. Now 63 years young, I want to join with other women to use our Power (which is simply our experience through the years in so many diverse ways) to make changes, support causes and fulfil our next decade. We are such experts in 'life' so let's make this decade worth living! Join us to meet feisty and interesting women.

Ted.com. How We Got Hooked on Credit Cards
New Farm Library, 135 Sydney Street New Farm Qld 4005, Brisbane, AUIn our Sixties+, it is fascinating to keep 'in the know’ with what others are thinking, being aware of new ideas which are being explored and in our ever changing world, understanding future innovation & design.
I choose a TED talk relevant to our interest, we watch it in advance then join me and others to discuss the topic - which, could evolve to be an in-depth session, a learning for us all or simply an enjoyable get together of inquisitive minds!
This month's topic is: How We Got Hooked on Credit Cards

_credit_cards
Today, credit cards are a $500 billion-a-year industry. Banks consider these lines of credit when deciding whether or not to approve loans, incentivizing customers to maintain multiple credit cards. So, how did this lending system originate? And how did they get to be so popular?We will then move on to discuss how we choose to pay for things, iPhone Apps, how many bank cards to we use, the Banks we trust and a lot more! Accountants & bank managers most welcome!!
Watch this BEFORE our meeting and if time allows, stay for lunch. $5 for non members, cash on the day. Coffee & tea provided.
Cheers Chris
