lots of older people are retired because they have a fat pension...not so for a large number of us...luckily, I am still in demand and make good money at 60 and God willing, I’ll keep at it a few more years...
I’m 61 and expect to be able to work for a while yet.
Just keep learning and expect change.
And good luck to you!
Planned on retiring two years ago but they won’t let me, they just keep offering more money. I’m 64 this November and making more money than I ever thought I would. With the explosion in the Permian basin oil fields old experienced hands are hard to find. I sold my business last January and told my partner I’ll stay with his business until I hit 68 then I’m out for sure, my wife will be 62 and we’ll retire to our place in Capitan New Mexico. I take care of all the families production on a total of 42 square miles of ranches and thats going to hard to walk away from. I hired a young engineer about 3 years ago and hopefully I’ll have him ready by then.
