Where is everyone?
(Preview)
I admit it’s the first time I’ve visited in some time, but this site appears to be a ghost town. Did we all die off? Better offers elsewhere? I came to talk about medicare, and other really fun stuff. I reckon I’ll be mosying along with the rest of you…

Book: Horse Soldiers
(Preview)
I just finished Horse Soldiers, by Doug Stanton. Quoting the back cover, Hose soldiers is the dramatic account of a small band of Special Forces soldiers who secretly entered Afghanistan following 9/11 and rode to war on horses against the Taliban. The book moves fast and is an exciting read. In m...

What can we do???

..... to engage the users of this forum and this organization to start communicating again. And yes - the dreaded AARP has an interactive community page; with many features and areas of interest.

Relocation Planning
(Preview)
It seems to me that under the main "Retirement Planning" section, there ought to be a sub-topic on "Relocation". Many of us will relocate when we retire, or at some time during retirement, and feedback from those who have "been there, done that" would be valuable for those planning that action.

Why no password for main website account?

I just joined and on the main website (not these forums) a member can log into his account. However, in order to log in to your account all a person needs is your member number and your email address. If you use your ID card for anything people have your member number and many places (like hotels) have your...

Perhaps a discussion area for FREE STUFF?
(Preview)
There are many of us AMAC members. I would guess that every day at least ten persons stumble onto some free good deal of interest someplace on the Web. It might be helpful if such persons could post links to their discoveries here. That might be a reason to check back into the forum often, too.

where is the "Sound Off" section?
(Preview)
On page 8 of the most recent AMAC magazine (Vol. 7 Issue 1), we are told to "...visit www.amac.us to give us your views and to readd what others are saying." Did I miss it on the Home page? I can't find the words "Sound Off" anywhere.

Member Login from main site
(Preview)
I noted that when I go to the main AMAC website there is a place for people to join, but there is no place for current members to log in and be directed to a members only section. That is if a members section has been developed.

I could not find such a page. Maybe I missed it. If such a page does not exist please add one to your website. It...

Members signing up new members as gifts

Put a button on the front page where you can say something like "Give an AMAC membership as a gift to a friend or family member at a discount!" Perhaps, maybe consider reducing the cost of the membership by say $2. This way, there would be an added incentive to put "our members"...

Membership Number
(Preview)
I was just looking at the "List of All Users" and there were a lot of guests. Maybe, when registering for the forums, you should ask for a Membership ID Number. If they have none, allow them to still enter, but ask if they would like to join. Just a thought.

Make it so, on a forum index of topics, if you hover the cursor over a thread topic, up appears the first few lines of the OP wording, so without clicking on it, you can quickly see if it is a t...

I forwarded info from your website to others to encourage them to join. I was embarrassed by the spelling errors in this morning's email. I certainly am no expert, but I found 2 glaring errors right on the first reading. Makes me feel somewhat foolish for pushing you to represent us older folks.

After reading something about Amac needing funds, I thought that donations might be the way to start. When I logged on, I imagined a "donate" button on the page. Not sure how hard it would be to set up, but it might be an easy way to remind people that they can donate. Then I wondered if Amac i...

need Amac wel site address

In order to recommend Amac to friends, I have no address to tell them. I looked all over the Amac Newletter, but NOTHING. Is it a secret? I would think that an organization that is looking for new members, you would put your address on top. NEXT TO THE BANNER! Milo Gardner
