Hey gviners, creating a thread to cumulate some examples of people having good careers beyond the age of 40
Reason - so much career anxiety spread around by linkedin gurus, that careers after age of 40 is dead
Please comment below with the example you have seen around you
Ill go first -
Your turn now :)
Most MNC employees have a thriving career, even beyond the age of 50
Same is true with consultants etc
Most of these people have enough wealth to not work beyond the age of 40, hence you dont see them around, or they start their own business
I haven't come across someone who left their salaried job to start a business.
I am still here at 41 plugging away at an IT job. Am I not a miracle!?
how's is it going?
Sir, I'm curious what's the salary they pay to Tech Lead at TCS, Could you please say a range and your total YOE?
Mother running her own marketing agency doing good revenue and profits at the age of 52
I would like to hire the services of the firm
40+ is where you make the most, not talking about those 2-3 YOE earning in crores, in general most population reach a decent salary when they are 40+ this is the time most debt are generally paid off, both working and good financial planning.

I am 35 , doing good enough as Group Product Manager , managing 15+ members , managing P&L of the group and see a good scope to learn and grow in the Industry .

Reality of market value for people in 40s and 50s: most people find themselves replaceable, their market value drops and difficult to switch career. Thoughts/comments?
