[quote=Anonymous]DH thinks I'm crazy, but I've been a bored SAHM for 20 years. Now that the kids are teens, I'd like to start my own business. I have a few ideas, but nothing certain yet. Has anyone made a transition like this? The reason I want to do this is that I can't get a job at my age. Believe me, I've looked. I can't even get an interview, or if I do, they see how old I am, and I'm out the door. "Thanks for coming in...." I've looked for jobs in my field, but my skills are 20 years old, and the entry level jobs I've applied for I'm not getting. I don't even get a response to my resume when I apply for a job that says, "1-3 years experience..." I have way more than that, but it was 20 years ago. So, I'm thinking my only hope is to start my own business and employ myself. If you've done this, please share your experience! Please give me hope! [/quote]
