People Continue to Work Well Into Their 70’s

Checking my Linked In page is something that I try to do daily. I can catch up with old business peers and even network with some new ones. A few weeks ago, though, something different caught my eye. Two marketing and communications professionals that I know were updating their skill sets. The interesting part is that they both happen to be well into their 70’s.

Then just last week, I saw this article that includes our freelance computer tech who serves Esprit Productions. Fred Wilson started his own business at the age of 54 and has been self-employed since 2000. Wilson created MAKO Computer Consulting after years of helping his friends with their computer problems. Wilson enjoys what he does much better now because he is able to help solve issues people may have been dealing with for a while in a short period of time. Wilson expresses how crucial it is the continue learning on the job and proving you’re the best at what you do to your costumers!

Updating one’s skill sets is a process that never ends.
