[quote=Anonymous]I was a poster on thread from 4 years ago when laid off during Covid from an high paying job and was 58. Update it took one year to land a decent full time job and I mean looking 30-40 hours a week. Was same title old job but a $160,000 a year pay cut! From $325,000 to $165,000. Ouch!!!! I kept looking maybe 15-20 hours a week as job remote. By a miracle I landed on my 61st birthday a $225,000 a year job. Still a 100k pay cut but I can live with it. Now I am 62 my job hunting days are over for now. I want to retire at 67 but reality is next layoff I am toast. It was crazy hard at 58-60 job hunting. I can’t imagine it at 63-65 That 165k job was peanuts. I was being paid in 2022 my same salary I made in 2005 but in 2022 had two kids in college! [/quote]
