@americantruthbomb: Are you over 40, over 50, even over 60 years old and in the middle of reinventing yourself? This seems to be a common occurrence now with AI age of downsizing Corporal layoffs and firings where people who never thought they would have to make a switch a change this late in life or suddenly forced to do so. Is that you? If so, what are you doing? How did you get here, and do you have plans or an answer baby boomers, Gen Xers, even millennials are finding the change and adaptation is necessary. Ageism, AI incorporate greed are forcing this change on people so tell me your story. #over50 #over40 #over60 60 #genx #unemployed #career ##lifechoices##retirement##corporatelife

54. Let go after 13 years. Ageism is real as is gender and identity politics. I’m not doing it again. The whole 9-5 being miserable thing. Rather, in the process of opening my own small business with a lifelong friend. We aim to open in the spring. I check no one’s boxes and at this age, will be difficult to find a lucrative job that is in any way rewarding to me.

57 and quit my corporate job last month. Not sure what I’m going to do but I’ll have to figure it out. I hated my job so much, that was no way to live.

Yep. 50-53. Burned it all down, gave away everything I own and moved to the EU to re start and re build everything. It has been the hardest 3 years of my life but now I feel a zest for life that I haven’t had since I was 18

59 and going through the same exact thing. Laid off from corporate job, but honestly, the corporate BS and woke culture within it is more than I can take. I’ve been learning to day trade for the past 6 years. I’ll be working for myself now.

Jane Valentine :
"I completely turned my life around—360 degrees. My marriage broke down… then my second marriage broke down. I got divorced, moved out, had to start over from scratch—emotionally, financially, the whole lot. And being a woman, there’s this extra layer to divorce. We don’t just lose relationships; we often lose parts of our identity too.
So I did something bold. I changed my name—not my first name, just my surname. It wasn’t about hiding who I was—it was about choosing who I wanted to become. That shift, simple as it sounds, helped me step more fully into reinvention.
But here’s the thing: I don’t think reinvention has a finish line. I think it’s really the art of becoming. We evolve, we grow, we rise, and we stumble—and we never truly ‘arrive’ anywhere until the day we take our last breath.
That’s where the joy lies: not in the destination, but in the becoming. And I’m here for it—all of it.
Gen X all the way."**

philstar186 :
I’m 53 now and I have found that it is imperative for me to reinvent myself… I have worked in an industry that I am getting to old to keep up with the younger guys and with grey hair now not taken as seriously as it’s physically demanding.
