Early Retirement

Ask yourself, "How many over fifty age workers are employed in my company?"

As a child, you are lead to believe that once you graduate from college, you will have a career that lasts 40 years until you retire at age 65. This is simply NOT true. Your career, in any chosen industry, is only 20 - 30 years long. Once you reach 45 years of age, your career is subject to end. Newer workers who are 20 years younger than you are, no longer wish to socialize with you.  Soon you find yourself marginalized professionally as well.  The best plan to prepare for this is to:  1. stay healthy,  2. avoid debt,  3. be philosophical in your outlook on life.

  1. "(In the USA) 56% of all workers experience an involuntary job separation after age fifty" Translation: "Almost two thirds of ALL people are just thrown in the garbage by their employer."
