I'm in my 40s and still doing well.

It seems no one is 100% safe from layoffs or companies making bad decisions.
I would encourage everyone to explore creating products/SaaS if those things are interesting to you. There no better job security than running your own business.

And this is inspiring, still my favorite talk @DHH Startup School:

"Calling your own shots, running at your own pace, that’s pretty great."
