midlife career changes

"Any suggestions on how to start, what to look at, what not to do?"

Yes, lots. First, if you are afraid of starting a business and putting 100% of your eggs in one basket so to speak, consider starting a business on the side. Of course it will take up all of your time until you find another job. If and when your side business gets going you can leave the job you take now. There is a book that we reviewed here on LifeTwo called "One Person Multiple Careers" that you might find useful. We also interviewed the author here.

You'll also want to click through our Midlife Career section Frequently Asked Questions.

Finally, please contribute here by posting your comments and thoughts so that what your experiences can help others.

Good luck and we hope to hear a lot more from you. While it might be scary, you are embarking on a very exciting path that should be very rewarding.
