[quote=Anonymous]I'm 48 and rapidly coming to the conclusion that this might be me. Part of the reason is money -- we have quite a bit so anything I make both faces a high marginal tax rate and is a drop in the bucket relative to our overall assets. A job also would tie me down and I'm finding that I need to travel a lot. We've got aging and sick parents in the midwest and west coast that require my attention, plus my late teens are going all over the place for college and athletics. I also have one child left at home. I have found interesting hobbies and some highly skilled volunteer work (right now I'm managing a website for an organization and on the advisory committee for a large non-profit endowment etc). The volunteer stuff keeps me engaged, and is somewhat intellectually satisfying. I prefer the volunteering to paid employment because of the flexibility and limited hours. Good luck! [/quote]
