Seems as though this thread got way away from the OP's original question.
I don't believe he wqas asking IF he should retire but opinions on telecommuting options for someone with above average computer skills.
Well Preacher if you are still listening here is my 2 cents.
In Jan I retired from the Aerospace Industry after 31 years in supply chain as they were offering a severance Pkg. I'm 62 and didn't want to start collecting SS yet.
I went to work with a Consulting Co. as a 1099 worker Doing basicly what I was doing during my working life but for more money and VERY flexible hours. I can also take engagements anywhere in the country.
I created an LLC and I am the only employee and pay myself a salary. Use ADP to handle payroll and taxes.
This allows me to work when I want and travel when I choose. As I will live in My 40 ft toyhauler during engagements away from home toy hauler is a business expense as is maintiance and repairs. Many tax advantages to being self employed.
As I'm sure you are aware many large corporations deal with contract employee services to keep their head count down and make it easier to eliminate and get experinced people as contracts come an go.
This may be something for you to research.
Well there is my 2 cents and sorry for being a bit wordy.
