I turned 40 and would like to go back to school but don't know what career path to take. I am hoping that you may have found a career that doesn't come with a mandatory retirement age and can recomend it to me.
I would prefer to be able to continue working in this career one or two days a week when I get older. I really admire my uncle who is a Psychologist but I can see that with that career it can take a while to build up a client base.
Any thoughts?

With a computer at home and internet connection, you can start earning from home, without any investment. You should choose your work at home job according to your skills and time available.
If you have a good typing speed, general and legal transcription jobs from companies like Mountain West, Tigerfish and Accutran are available. Some of these companies do not require any experience.
You can apply directly from their websites which are listed at

Medical transcription work at home is also available if you have completed a course and have relevant experience.

You sound like a perfect candidate for a home business. The hours are right and you are creating leverage as well as residual income. When you choose to retire, your business will continue to earn you money based on what you have built. It is much easier than most people think, inexpensive to get started and provides mentoring and training from people who have found success. By doing this, you are eliminating all of the usual problems like salary caps and forced retirement. You are also taking control of your destiny and a lot of perks go with that. I have found something that the baby boomers are looking for and find that it sells itself, each day when I turn on my computer, I see how my business has grown, now That's exciting!

Starting a new career at age 40 is tricky. but if you're willing to put the efforts go to nursing school get an AA or nurses'aide training and just go on call. lots of registry have a roster to send to hospitals and nsg homes where needed. no forced retirement.
nurse's aide training i believe takes only 6 months. lots of career
are obtain via 6 month. checked into it and also online. Altho' i would question their credentials.
