lynch,

I think that is a question best answered in the context of each person’s individual situation. Whether it be going to school to get a new degree, learning a trade, or starting a small business based upon skills over the years, there are many options if you are willing to take a chance and assert yourself.

My biggest question is how can we go back to school with the costs so prohibitively high?

As ruthless as it might seem i’ve always expected people to be constantly evaluating their situation in life and making sure they make the right strategic decisions to put themselves in positions to prosper not only currently but for their near and long term future. switching jobs, learning new skills, and adapting to change shouldn’t be seen as frustrating or scary but exciting and mysterious.

wayneaj3, what type of school are you enrolling in? how did you choose your new future profession? what makes you think it will be more secure than your previous one?

i think its beneficial to have these discussions to let others see what is involved in this growth process!

I’m looking forward to the rest of my life and my wish is that Baby Boomers become the most positive force for healthy living with a positive outlook.
