About this audiobook
The ‘80s sitcom The Golden Girls popularized the idea that four older women could get along well as housemates. Now, with one in every three baby boomers single and approaching retirement, many women are turning to communal living to ease the burdens of aging. Special correspondent Spencer Michels reports reports for our Taking Care series.
