Maybe older people have to give up on the traditional and usual sources of employment and look to doing their own thing. One thing I believe is true, we should not give up on ourselves. I came across this video posted via DigiDame on the great website Senior Planet. It is some encouragement that is needed and deserved. Video of Gary Vaynerchuk talking about possibilities for people of all ages.
Forty-year old Gary Vaynerchuk, one of the most successful entrepreneurs and investors in the digital world, says it’s time for seniors to become big-time inventors and creators on the internet. He wants to get rid of the notion that only millennials can make millions by inventing new concepts using the smartphone and other mobile devices. (DigiDame)
I think this a great post and it reflects on some people I work with. They have truly defied the stereotype about “not being able to adapt” to newer technologies and think “outside the box”. It is the attitude and perception rather than age. In fact, their experience comes in handy to solve many a tricky problem.
