Note one of the white elephants in the room. Ageism.

  Scares the hell out of me to be frank...

    Scares the hell out of me too. I think the ageism problem will eventually get solved. But my concern is will it get solved in time for me? In the meantime, I try to think up things I can do to combat it and I pretty much completely draw blanks. I'm seriously considering exploring small bootstrapped start ups in my free time for no other reason than to hopefully have an income stream I can use should I find myself out of a job due to age.

  Yeah, one of these stories is not like the others. '“It just kills me to sit here, and not work, and have the abilities that I do,” he said. “I call it a rainy day that turned into a rainy month that turned into a rainy year.”' He's in Buffalo (NY presumably), not exactly Smalltown. Based on the calls/callbacks he says he's getting, there are employers that are looking for people with his skills ... who are young.
