I'm a 60-year old programmer and I have no problem finding very good paying jobs in the Dallas area. I heard 20 years ago that older people have trouble finding work. How old do I have to get before that starts to happen to me because it hasn't happened yet, and I've got enough to retire today. Not everyone is a programmer, but if I can find good jobs at 60 I'm not buying these stories about the economy being tough. That was 5 years ago. Right now the economy is great. If someone can't find a job in this market and they aren't seriously handicapped then frankly it's because they aren't trying very hard.

If something happened to me in the coming years and I lost my job it would depress me to look for similar since it probably would be hard to come by.
Wouldn't stop looking and certainly would settle for less as long as it paid the important bills but trust me I wouldn't be enthused to make less than 20 bucks an hour.
Ageism IS alive and kicking.
