Keeping Yourself Employable

This is a time when many seniors are worried that they will not be able to keep up their incomes enough to balance out the erosion of buying power caused by inflation. Every year your spendable income must increase or you must reduce your spending! With inflation at present day levels (fairly low) your income must double every 20 Years just to keep up!


Well, what's to do about it? Obviously now or in the near future you are going to have to look at a part-time job or a part-time business! If this is the case for you, then you need to get up to speed with modern technology. It's amazing how quickly you become out of date if you're not making an effort to keep up!

Take a look at these headings and try to assess where your skill level is for each of them.
-computers
-digital equipment-cameras etc.
-cell phones-text messaging, voice mail etc.
-on line- buying, selling, banking, etc.
-palm pilots
-Communication devices in general
How did you do?
