I used to work in advertising as a graphic designer. Age discrimination is rampant there, I would suspect more so than software development in some ways. Therefore, software development is my plan B. I have a friend who is older than I, and he's specialized in SQL. He only does SQL, and he's still finding jobs. If I needed a plan C, it would be taking up legacy code base that seems to never disappear.
