Hi Samtise! Welcome to Mylot! Tough decision you have here my friend. Yeah, I agree, it's not easy finding a good job when you have to compete with younger people. You can't be undecided for too long, specially if you have no savings to sustain you during your unemployment. Dwell on what you do best. Assess yourself on what you are good at and use it. Maybe with your expertise you can do some consultancy jobs to companies. If you have a lot of savings, it is better to run your own business, but doing so also entails risk. Whatever decision that you make weigh your pros and cons. Good Luck Samtise!
