       Most people over 65 think that they cannot win in these puzzle contests. They are afraid that other contestants are much younger, and that they cannot compete.
       Actually, most winners are over 65. More than 50% of our contestants are over 70 and 15% are over 80. Only 3% of the contestants are under 50.
       We have NEVER had a winner under 30.
       Younger people today were raised on fast-paced video games, action movies and TV programs. Contests are too slow for them. Puzzle contests hold very little attraction for young people.

 



 
LIVE LONGER
       Studies have shown that people who do puzzles live longer and have fewer health problems in their later years. There are two reasons.

       Puzzles keep you mentally alert. People who are alert enjoy life more. A positive outlook is a major factor in longevity. Plus, people who are alert have fewer falls, and are more likely to take their medications correctly.

       People who enter puzzle contests have goals, things they are looking forward to. They are always awaiting the results of the contests they already entered, and the puzzles for upcoming contests. It has long been known that having goals is another key factor in longevity.
