I won't need to, as I am already set for retirement. So unless there's some kind of National Emergency and I lose all my money, I won't need to worry about it. That's the whole point, isn't it? Older people are pissed off about snot-faced punks driving around in their BMW's and making 3 times as much as their parents did combined. The smart ones know to hold on to that cash and not spend it, so they won't have to worry about needing a job at 35+.
Age discrimination at 35? Fine by me. I'm 25 years old. I have been using computers all my life, and this is my ballgame, not theirs. I'm sick and tired of getting rooted out for "lack of experience". Not any more, now I'm top dog. They aren't. We are smarter, because of being stupid enough to sit in front of our computers 18 hours/day while our friends were off playing football. We were the geeks in high-school. Well, now we drive the online world. Older people who didn't know shit about it saw $ signs, and tried to jump into it, but they don't understand it. We own them. They must bow to us. CEO at age 25? Can't argue with that. All those old bastards out there... well... tough break. Some win, some lose and some are lucky. But I'll be damned if I'm gonna let some gray-haird "senior executive" drive my work-flow in the usual conservative BS management style. It's over. Admit defeat.
