I will be 65 in August and I know that Lord willing I have at least five good years left. How do I get around the barbed wire fence that is intended to keep people over 55 out of the job market?
I have been with a wellhead company working For the last 34 years and recently left. Would like to find employment as I am not ready to retire yet.

What opportunities are out there for a soon to retire science teacher.
I have hit pretty much rock bottom. I have lost my retirement and everything. Even started a fund me account https://www.gofundme.com/manage/sinking-and-not-getting-air to see if that helps. I know we all look for jobs and hope to find one, but I know found out just how bad it is where I live. I was shocked to see that the town I live in was ranked SECOND amongst EVERY town in the United States. No wonder I have such a hard time....
I decided to end my 9-5 day job and start enjoying life more. I will start to collect SSN (I am 63) and will work part time. I was hating Mondays and the weekends were too short. I want to see the sunsets instead of being in an office. I have lots of life to live.
I"m a software developer in Dayton, Ohio (USA) with over 20+ years of experience. The problem is, most of that experience is in Perl, and almost no one is still writing code in Perl. I have some Java experience (1 1/2 years), but all the Java developer jobs I've come across require at least 3 years of experience in the language. I've never worked with C# or .NET, so I'm not qualified for those jobs. Also, I can't relocate due to family commitments. I'm ready to throw in the towel and give up. But I can't see myself doing anything other than IT. Any suggestions?
Does anyone have suggestions about an ira fund separate from an employer, what is the best company.
I love what I do....who gets to fluff pillows, make suggestions in colors, fabrics and styles that make people happy??? Not many. However, it has not been a money maker and as I am approaching near retirement, I have to make some hard career decisions.
