[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dad got a nice package at age 72 - he's a software engineer by training and his career in his later years focused more on business development. He experienced his share of ageism but ultimately no one wanted to fire him because of his consistent results. Finally they were getting rid of a third of their workforce and offering packages and he decided to take one. So, it's not a rule! I'm not sure how a woman that age would have fared.[/quote] But still 72 is young depending on circumstance. My uncle was lucky to retire at 80. He is 92 lives in Malibu and dating a much younger women who is 80. Why is age a random number. Betty White and Norman Lear have worked almost 50 years after their 50th bday [/quote]
