When I was young it never occurred to me that I might still be working in my late sixties. I thought I would be 'elderly' (defined as anyone over 65), like on those ‘bent bananas’ road signs, and kindly, like a granny, but well past my sell by date. You know what? This is a stereotype I don’t fit and neither do most people I know. Read my latest blog post to find out more. https://www.silverstartups.co.uk/blog/2023/4/11/why-working-still-works-for-me

It's ironic that Jeremy Hunt’s words 'Your Country Needs You', aimed at the more than three million economically inactive people over 50 in the UK, are the same people who have been told so often that they are no longer needed at work. The government is now pledging more support for employees and employers, but what about people who are self-employed or just starting up? What do older people no longer in the job market think about it? Read Your Country Needs You! and find out why people over 50 have been dropping out of the workforce, how they feel about different ways of working and whether they will ever return.

I’m sure I don’t need to tell you that Jeremy Hunt’s words are aimed at the more than three million over-50s in the UK who are economically inactive.

Have you been thinking about starting a business, but aren’t sure about the risks?

Search on ‘business risks’ and you’ll find an endless number, but managing risk is an essential part of business survival. If you identify what could go wrong, evaluate which risks should be dealt with and implement strategies to deal with these risks you will be better prepared to overcome them. And your business will survive.

But should you risk starting up at all?

Your chances of success are significantly higher if you are over 50, because of the valuable skills, experience and contacts you have gained during your lifetime and career. But there are risks, nevertheless.

My latest blog post explores the risks of starting your own business and how to know if it's time to make your entrepreneurial dreams come true.
