Re: Too old?

["Melissa Nelson" <melmis36 -at- hotmail -dot- com>]

  This sounds like a perfect retirement plan! My fiance has worked at
  UPS since he was 20, and will be able to retire in five years at the ripe
  old age of 50.  He went back to school and is working on his Masters now. We
  have been talking about when he retires just taking 5-6 month contracts and
  traveling. That is another advantage to tech writing...contract work!
