At your old age, it is lucky that you are still employed. Many people at your age either got retrenched, asked to leave or being forced to leave as life is made difficult for them. They are then replaced with younger, cheaper workers. Having a masters or even two masters degree means nothing. Be thankful you still have a job that pays quite high for an old man.

You must be prepared for the day, don't be fooled. Have you cleared your home mortgage? Where are you staying - a HDB flat or a condo? Do you have enough savings? Is your wife working?

You must be prepared to become either a taxi driver, insurance agent or property agent one of these fateful days.

The industry im working at is very small. Recently got transferred to another place, a less prestigious department of the company, while people surrounding me got promoted. Quite demoralised since i worked there for 15+ years.
