If you're laid off in your late 40s, 50s, it's pretty much game over for you unless you have connections aka "guan xi".
Yes agreed.... I know of an SVP in a local bank earning 250k+ per annum who got retrenched in mid 40s. He's been jobless since covid started since he cannot find a similar job. Fortunately his mortgage is fully paid otherwise he will die cock stand....
