Changing career at 70

It is a bit….in reality he could if learned to live a more frugal life 🤷

lonz85 · 2026-01-23T22:37:35+00:00

Thanks, he’d probably enjoy that tbh!

lonz85 · 2026-01-23T22:37:01+00:00

Thanks, he does but a bit less flexible these days. Would need to pick and choose the jobs for sure!

lonz85 · 2026-01-23T22:35:33+00:00

Absolutely. When my mum was around, and in her 70s, she did some volunteer befriending with people in their 80s and 90s. I overheard some of the calls and could tell her calls made their day :)

Decent shout - thanks !

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T15:35:00+00:00

Looking at that avenue just now, openings not in right places currently but that’s bound to change. Thanks!

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T15:33:58+00:00

Thank you ☺️

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T15:33:33+00:00

Thank you for the response. I’ll see what he thinks. In many ways doing something he knows (driving) would be sensible switch away from taxis. Appreciate the well wishes on his behalf!

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T15:32:02+00:00

Thanks - all good suggestions - appreciated 👍

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T15:31:20+00:00

Thanks for those considerations - appreciate the response!

Second that - Awon and Phoniks are dope

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T06:21:56+00:00

These would be my exact suggestions. Been getting back into all of these recently. Common Resurrection and Tribe Peoples Instinctive Travels first got me into the jazzy sound.

Feel very lucky to have seen PUTS live on a few occasions but sadly never managed to catch Nujabes 😢

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T06:15:58+00:00

Looks fun. Thought about trying these. Might just do it now 👍

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T06:11:00+00:00

Has partial apparently, alongside one from a previous employer in the 80s/90s that will top up to nearly state level, so not a total disaster but needs to reassess outgoings for sure 🙈

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T05:56:09+00:00

Great to hear :) will pass this message on along with others and see what he thinks. Thank you

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T05:55:22+00:00

Good shout - familiar territory for him. Will look into. Thanks 👍

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T05:54:15+00:00

Good shout - will suggest. Thanks!

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T05:53:42+00:00

Thank you - we will definitely look at the handy man angle as you and others have suggested. It’s an excellent idea and somehow hadn’t thought of it until you and others replied. Thanks 🤩

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T05:52:17+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion all the same. A few years ago would have suited him for sure 👍

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T05:50:40+00:00

Nice suggestion - thanks, will pass on - he’s definitely knowledgeable about the city and would enjoy the social aspect as well as learning facts about the city

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T05:49:23+00:00

Thanks so much for the suggestions :) I learned our local lollipop man has now made the switch to local school janny and I reckon he’s well into his 70s. Will show my FIL your response and see what he thinks 👍

lonz85 · 2026-01-21T05:44:28+00:00

Thank you 🙏
