[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You gotta save once you hit 47. I made $450k a year until the ax finally fell at 52. I was able to find a job at half that and am now 55. But the ax is going to fall here too. My next job will be half the current salary so not much over $100k. Plan on retiring at 60. Some companies don’t but many do. Cheaper and younger.....[/quote] OP here. You all run on way way richer crowds. If my family and friends we’re pulling in $0.5M/year and got laid off at 50, they would have simply retired. We are normal professional: first line technical managers, sys admins, project managers, chemists. We make at most $200k at the peak of our career. Your step down salary after laid off is amazing. Maybe we are just unlucky and our lower salaries will protect me?[/quote]
