Don't plan to, want to and hopefully have to be working beyond 70 😥

great info / thank you

First

Good thoughts. Thank you.

This is definetly timely for me!

I'm 55 and finally starting my writing career which includes starting an editorial services business providing proofreading, copyediting, and line editing services possibly to self-published authors, PhD students writing their thesis, and publishing houses. Your platform definitely sounds like a resource that could help me.

We are living in a period right now where experience counts for nothing. I've found that out the hard way. Knowledge and experience are being perceived as "expensive" & negative overall. Job jumpers, who I used to criticize all the time, appear to have the right idea. Having an active resume appears to give one an edge.

I just turned 50 too this month! Liked and subscribed 😊

Perceptive and insightful, Craig! Instead of becoming fearful of new innovations, we need to "take the bull by the horns," making it serve us, not vice versa.

HI Craig - Loving this new angle of your work!

Retired after 27+ years of glorious state service with pension. Took 2+ years off to try out retirement life. Moved down South, got gastric bypass surgery & lost 40+ pounds. Now back to full time work as a civilian for a nearby Sheriff’s office. Good mix of younger kids, people my age & the work is not really difficult. They REALLY liked my resume & I feel appreciated & wanted so I’m gonna stick around a minute to try it out.

Great strategy but "I'm too old yet" doesn't quite work! :)

Yes

The fact that you glorifying this un retirement is disrespectful. Older folks are returning to work because they don’t have a choice, not because they want to. Americans can no longer live on retirement alone.

Thanks, Craig. Quite interesting and hopeful!

True words. Companies: get college degreed kids willing to work 60 hrs a week so we can save on labor and py good dividends to stock holders.

This is quite revealing.

4 days a week, portable, 10 am to 3 pm, remote.

1100-1500. 4days a week, portable: coffee shop, park, library,

Agreed. Good content. Subscribed 😊

I feel like this episode needs a worksheet.

I know you did say that there are more than just these 4 types. One that I think would be a strong contender as a fifth type in a top 5 list is the Expat. They're not Domestic, as they have left their country of origin. They're not really Roaming Nomads, as they generally choose a home base in their new country (possibly allowing them travel opportunities, but they generally do chose a home base). They're not Seasonal, as they are living year round in their new home base. They're not just on a Workation, they have chosen to move and live in a new country (although they might have used a 'workation' to test drive the concept and/or location. So for me, type #5, The Expat Nomad, is what my husband and I aspire to! We're visitng Portugal in September, on an exploratory trip to see if would want to move/live there. Thank you for this (and other) interesting videos.

I'm kind of wanting to be in between the Seasonal and Domestic nomad.

Would love to try to each of them to see what works best for me.

I can't do any right now... caring for elderly parent. but, the dream is to be able to start with the 2nd and graduate to or mix in some of the 1st. i think ultimately living in other countries for 6 months to a year at a time would be amazing.

Thanks for posting this video. Gives me some hope.

Awesome video as usual. Thank you!! 💕

First!

Very good content!! Thanks and congratulations!!

Thanks

Loved the info. Thanks Craig!

Hello sir Are you looking for a professional KZbin thumbnail designer and video SEO expert?

These freelance options are great. I started a Substack in December 2022 dedicated to women navigating midlife and all the "fun" things that come with that. I also just finished a copyediting/proofreading course and received a certificate of completion and want to start an editorial services business providing copyediting, proofreading, and copywriting services. Gen X isn't taking the traditional retirement path and I'm glad I found this community to assist with freelancing over 50.

This is so awesome! Glad you guys are on YT now! 😍

I love your newsletters and videos, Craig. Thank you!

50 is nowhere near as old as it was when my parents hit that milestone 😅

Love this

I am so happy you have started this channel. Thank you.💗
