The 60 and over crowd is getting the recognition and making a difference later in life. Colonel Sanders didn’t start his KFC franchise until his 60s, and a Pew Research Center study reports that 19% of those 65 and older are working — nearly double the figure from 35 years ago. The study also notes that two-thirds of those in the 65-and-older category say they’re extremely or very satisfied with their jobs, compared to only 44% of those ages 18 to 29. Successful people in the 60-and-older camp are finding fulfillment in their later years, regardless of industry. There’s still time for great things ahead!
