Many investors look to accumulate as much wealth as possible when they are young, even if they have to take plenty of risks. However, older investors become risk averse and usually shift their focus to wealth preservation.

Investing in ETFs that offer a mix of passive income and some potential upside may help retirees who don’t have high risk tolerances. These Invesco ETFs are worth considering for baby boomers who want to get steady cash flow and more mileage out of their nest eggs.
