Jenny, those days are completley over. Working for a company for life and then retiring is a thing of the past, plus it's boring Good thing you didnt listen to your parents. Keep up the good work on your blog…funny stuff. Thx for the comments.

I love this Rich. It reminds me of career conversations with my parents and their advice to “Get a solid job with good health insurance, work for 30 years, retire.” That's the safe way and the way it's always been. But in today's world, it's not necessary.

Rich,

I'm definitely against the idea of doing something because it's always done that way. To me the most successful people continually adapt to their environment. Without adaptation they let everything pass them by.

Good point. That's something that separates entrepreneurs from workers: our ability to think of things in a way that challenges the status quo. Those that don't, quickly become workers again.
