I am going to be 66 soon. I am "between gigs." Its been six months. Things are tough out there - not as tough as the dot-bomb era or the 2008 finance crash or the Covid epidemic, but it's tough.
How am I dealing with it? I am working my @$$ off. I am learning new skills (AI, etc.), writing about those skills via LinkedIn, Medium, Substack, and more. I've written a series of AI-related books, the first of which will post on Kindle any day now.
To me my main reason for joining this group is to help others and to, ultimately, lobby against the massive, blatant age discrimination out there.
All my best,
Tom
