Key Takeaways
You are never too old to get rich. Focus on finding richness in your work and value in what you are doing.
The workplace profoundly changed during the pandemic, particularly for those over 50. People were laid off and took early retirement. The shift was psychological as well as financial.
By nature of the aging population, there is a tremendous need to keep workers on the job longer.
Start planning in your 50s, what you might want to do in your 60s. 'Wade' into that territory by taking a class, doing some informational interviews or job-shadowing. Adopt a learning mindset.
