    Consulting

    Many older folks like us can serve young people starting new businesses as a consultant. I’m a software developer, and I can help new businesses decide what software to use in their daily work, and whether or not custom software is required for the work they do. We can charge these businesses for our time. the real challenge here is how to promote our capability and availability!

      You are right George!

      Thanks George for your comment – this is a good example of turning “job skills” into independent contractor or consultant income. I find that even if businesses will not hire retirement-age folks no matter how competent, they will bring them in on a project basis for specific tasks, at a good hourly rate. And often they extend or repeat the process as needed.
