    Recently my sister was in the hospital getting an electrocardiogram. I was in the room while it was done. The tech doing the test was a friendly guy so I started a conversation with him. Turns out he was a geologist at one time. That job was good for a long time but things started to go down hill. He decided he had to find another skill to pay the bills. He went to school for 6 months to become an EKG technician. Now he works in a hospital and is very busy. It was a good career change for him. And he was in his 50s.

      Thank you for sharing such an inspiring story! It’s a perfect example of how someone in their 50s can successfully pivot to a completely new field with determination and the right training. It’s amazing how he leveraged a short-term program to transition into a stable and fulfilling career. Stories like these really drive home the message that it’s never too late to reinvent yourself. If you don’t mind, I’d love to share this example in future content to inspire others!!

The job had it's heyday but the past four years I've been working hard on two new careers and am only able to make side money. It's a frustrating time now especially with the job market in a tough place. Luckily the two new careers I'm building do not have an age limit.

    I wonder if your previous employer, to some extent, deliberately created this overload work environment to get you to retire or leave the company. In this way, they bring in younger people to take the places of older ones. I've heard of such practices. Either way, I'm glad that you adjusted, adapted, and are now again happy in your work. I'm 62 and am considering going back to work in some way, because I am bored. I retired very early, but I want to be back in the game somehow. I feel like I still have something to offer, and that it's going to waste.

I'm glad to hear you're considering getting back into the workforce! Your experience can definitely make a huge impact, and it's never too late to share your knowledge.

    Thanks for your video(s). Truly appreciate the encouragement. I've been with my current company for just over 25 years now. I'm currently 59 years old and contemplating a change. I've been in computer / network support here in a variety of roles, but have always been the primary champion of increasing our security stance - many years I was the sole supporter of security. It was seen as only a cost center. Well, eventually attitudes began to change as the inevitable result of a security incident. Suddenly things changed and I was being listened to like never before. Without going into all of it, promises were made that ultimately were not delivered. When the company finally made the decision to onboard a Chief Information Security Officer, I was not even granted an interview. I've had a few meetings with the CISO and I believe he is actually on the right track, though he's going to have immense hurdles attempting to do what needs to be done with zero experience at the position and having spent his entire career in Government. Initially I wanted to help, but as time has passed and more explicit and implicit promises made to me have again been ignored, I've decided it's not worth the aggravation to continue. I've withdrawn my support and no longer provide information / updates regarding my special interests. I've primarily acted as an early warning system given my contacts in numerous other countries and my keen insight for potential exposure. And I can continue for a while b/c it's still good money, but it's literally a DAILY GRIND to continue knowing that mid-upper management is blatantly dishonest. I could take it to the top-level management / ownership, but I feel at some level they're responsible either due to lack of knowledge / interest and / or continued support for those who clearly are not capable or honest. Considering putting myself out for hire as a fractional CISO, wherein I can provide my skills, leadership and expertise in the field to multiple companies remotely and each of them would pay a portion of my fee(s). I'm also considering changing altogether to another field. I have degrees in History and Aerospace Engineering. I also have a background in law, as well as a very creative side in music, art and writing. We'll have 4 separate income sources once retirement age fully arrives. So I just need something to keep me "off the streets" for the next 7 years. Frankly with some of the things I did in my early 20s, I could do pretty much anything and stay afloat. But I'd like to keep my wife and fur babies in the lifestyle to which they're accustomed. I'm going to check out your checklist, but I'm hoping you may have some suggestions for actually narrowing down what I really should be doing - following a "passion" or just finding the best way to pay the bills. Thanks for your help!

Please keep us posted! And, if you have any questions, just ask! Thanks again!

    I’m 59-year-old woman not married adult children are living another states. I took a job with the county a few years ago thinking it would be a good move because I needed health insurance. I needed paid holidays. Paid vacation sick days things like that and the first two years I worked there I really liked my job and I was really good at it and the county decided to move me and I hated the move. I hated the job and I hated my supervisor. I was very very miserable so I asked for a transfer and I asked for a transfer back to the job that I liked Will transfer but did not put me somewhere else. Now I do have a much better supervisor and it’s an open door policy. That’s the positive but it’s way too much work. There are no boundaries. It’s a young person. Who is my supervisor which I’m really OK with in the sense that I don’t care but it seems like she doesn’t know how to sit boundaries for her employees and so everybody gets away with asking us to do their work And we’re responsible for doing it and we make a mistake. The burden is ours when it really go to somebody else cause we shouldn’t be doing their work out at least that doesn’t work, but I’m 59 years old. I was hoping I’d get some kind of pension. What do I do, I am not. do not have college or any degrees

    • @MidlifeReinvent
      @MidlifeReinvent Місяць тому

      It sounds like you're in a tough spot, but you’ve still got options! Since your supervisor has an open-door policy, talk to her about the workload and boundary issues. If possible also try to clarify your role, so you’re not stuck doing tasks outside your job description. You might also want to think about looking for other internal positions that might suit you better- don't forget your experience counts, even without a degree. And, if you're thinking about the long-term, maybe explore getting certifications that might help you transition to a less stressful role. Plus, you might want to consider talking to a financial advisor about your pension plan and your future goals. You've already shown that you have resilience, so don't give up!

So, without knowing your specific area of expertise, here's some options you might want to consider: - Compliance Officer: Use your legal expertise to help businesses follow regulations, especially in finance or healthcare. - Corporate Trainer: Teach companies about compliance, ethics, or legal topics. - Consulting: Advise businesses on legal or regulatory challenges. - HR Roles: Your knowledge of employment law and conflict resolution makes you a great fit for human resources. - Contract Management: Manage and negotiate business contracts with your legal background. - Policy Analyst: Shape laws and regulations by working with government or think tanks. - Project Management: Your attention to detail and organizational skills transfer well here. - Real Estate: Use your property law knowledge to become an agent or broker. - Mediation: Help resolve disputes outside of court as a mediator. - Writing: Create content for legal blogs, write guides, or even books. There's no doubt that your legal experience opens up ton of doors!

    I used to think so. But, if the average lifespan is ~80 or so (plus or minus a few years) I just cannot see myself retiring. Furthermore, I don’t want to spend the last years of my life doing something others want me to do… what the hell?!? It’s my life… what have I got to lose… my life, my friends, my family will not approve? I’m not getting out of here alive, so…

    I went straight to work out of high school and by age 20 received my Journeyman's license as an electrician. As luck would have it I applied for a job at one of the largest Aero Space research facilities in southern California. We had 54 Journeyman Electricians at that facility and a total population of about 15,000 employees total at the plant in Huntington Beach. Mostly scientist and engineers but we also had some production. My job was servicing large proprietary machine tools, escorting people into skiffs and equipment inspections. The last 10 years I was assigned to surveillance and servicing audio and Public Address systems and energy management. None of the work I did translated to anything that was valuable to getting a new job. Eventually my group was down to 11 guys and we had lots of responsibilities other than maintaining the infrastructure of the plant and that included things like heat treat calibration and surveillance. I worked 6 and 7 days a week towards the end and was swimming in money. At age 52 I was laid off and went back into construction for a couple of years and just gave up. I'm still looking for work in something other than construction but just haven't found anything. It's hot where I live and the only real jobs are residential work or installing Solar PV's. No thanks. Skin cancer sucks and so does falling off roofs.

    Nearly 61 here and I have an interview on Tuesday for yet another career change. Worked 27 years in my previous job and realised I was just sleepwalking to my grave and with no ambition apart from taking a pay check. My last job was a complete change from the previous 27 years - designing and creating interactive learning packages and e-learns but I got requested into a new department where I have been twiddling my thumbs in frustration. Too young to retire and too old to put up with that type of nonsense so I applied for yet another career change which takes me back to my first sentence.

      I was a stay at Home mom with no money in my IRA or any savings of my own, which was scary at 53 years of age. Three years ago I got a part time job and save everything I make. After 3 years, I am 56 yo and have put $9,000 in an IRA and $40,000 in my portfolio with CFA, Dorian j Townsend. Since the goal of getting a job was to invest for retirement and NOT up my lifestyle, I was able to scale this quickly to $150,000. If I can do this in a year, anyone can.

      4 years ago, I was living paycheck to paycheck, working 40 hours a week. I was a high school dropout with a GED and had a 489 credit score, along with an eviction, repossession, and collections. I got into real estate but encountered unqualified clients who couldn't qualify for a mortgage due to their credit. I found this home-based business here on UA-cam, and it just made sense.
