I figure I will need an additional 3k a month added to my income to support my two adult
Sons.
Veterans have Vocatonal Rehabliatation available ,but I need money now.I answered a
blind ad that didn't quite say what they sold. Kirby vacuum cleaners are a fine product,I guess. I just don't see someone spending $2,500 on one. Kirby has people to clean your carpet and then bring in a closer like me. Not only no,but hell no, would I try and close a little old lady to sign a contract on an over priced vacuum cleaner.
I found myself at a Funerall place listening on how to pitch expensive Funeral packages to grieving families. Talk about slime!
The Medical companies I used to work for,now hire as many beautiful young Women fresh out of college. Now days one needs an "image". Thank God I was hired when I was.
I am too picky,I guess. I have no desire to sell cars,timeshares,or Insurance. I was a top salesman in all the companies I worked for but I am no longer welcome in any conventional sales organization.A million get rich schemes want me, but I don't want them.
My suggestions to all my brother and sisters on the wrong side of sixty is to make
this the BEST time of your life. I am going to take a writing course,a computer course and an English course. I have a friend who hires Models.She says people over sixty
are very much in demand as models or actors. Thousands of young women and men
try to break into the industry but not that many over 60 try. The baby boomers are aging.(lots of us are around)
So if any one on the wrong side of sixty, is struggling to find work,think outside the box. I love to write,maybe with training,I might learn how to write a clear sentence.
Try and be a model,actor,take pictures,Kentuckty FriedChicken was created by a man
who at age 65 felt he had no skills to offer the world. He DID have his moms recipe
for Chicken.RayKrock was nearly sixty years old when Mcdonalds was formed as we know it today.
Now is the time for you to become the "you" that you always wanted to be.
Where will you be 5 years from now?
Good Luck!
