I feel like a dinosaur at computerforum.com I think I am something like the second oldest person there.

I joined there but haven't actively participated yet. I'll get around to it some day.

What's the rumor going around that no one over 40 is hireable for a tech job?

...we're all in trouble, apparently... or, at least, eventually!!

meh... when you work with a bunch of 18-20 year olds it's very easy to feel old, even for me. :shrug: but what's worse is the main audience at clubs around here is 16-20 year olds, i am usually amongst the oldest when i go out, which is one of the reasons i don't go out much anymore.

By age 40, I would like to be working for myself, and fulfill my life long dream of never having to leave my house

I was already over 40 when I started mine, so if you don't make it by then, keep trying. You have the brains and capacity to make a success.
