I'm sure we all saw the commercials for Lumosity, the company that offered us aging Boomers the opportunity to play some games and train our brains.

But apparently the Feds don't think this really works. Here's an article that explains why Lumosity is being charged $2 Million for their apparent deception.

So I'm just curious: Did anyone you know try it? I do think there is evidence that exposing ourselves and our brains to new experiences is a good thing.

What have you heard?

Well, since Lumos Labs has to pay a 2 million fine against a billion in annual sales, I'd say the lab came out ahead in this brain scam.

IMHO reading is a good way to keep the brain working. Even reading all the posts on social media should help keep the thought process functioning.
