[quote=Anonymous]I'm a federal contractor in my early 60s who was just laid off and trying to figure out what's next. It was never easy for those in this age range to find another job and in this environment I wonder if it's even possible. I'm a single parent, but DC is more or less launched and my house will be paid off in a year or so. I wonder if it's just time to call it quits on working. I have some consulting work and can get unemployment for a while, paltry as that it is. Doing the whole selling myself to potential employers thing is not appealing to me at this point, although, of course, I can try. I had hoped to get more saved before retirement, but maybe it's just time to retire and be frugal. I'm interested in hearing from others in similar circumstances.[/quote]
