[quote=Anonymous]I was laid of from consulting at 53. Thankfully, I had a good severance package. I was able to find a job six months later, but it is a significantly reduced salary. Thankfully, DH doesn’t have the same issue (medicine) and we had a lot saved for college already. I wish I knew this was an issue in my 30s/40s. We saved a lot and lived well within our means, but I think I would have saved even more and thought to retire at 55. I was able to move into a different type of role and it is still a challenge, but I feel lucky to have found another job as many of my colleagues haven’t had the same luck. [/quote]
