It's just that it's been YEARS since I've been in school! I've tried to keep up with technology, but my 2 teenager kids will have to help me create a website, because I have ZERO idea where to even begin. I've worked in accounting my whole adult life...the past 16 years with the same company. Same people. Same desk. Starting over, in my opinion, is harder than starting from the beginning. Everyone expects you to have your career all mapped out and settled by the time you're in your 40's. It's a bit scary. : )

Good luck to YOU, by the way!

If I am not wrong, Colonel Sanders didnt start Kentucky Fried Chicken till he wasa 67. So at 48, you are still a newbie! I think working/ doing what you enjoy especially after you really have your life to live after the kids is such an awesome opportunity to see where you can really shine. Go for it. It will be a wild ride. You will have happy and sad days. But at the end of the day, as long as you are at peace at what you do, just like Nike said, "Just do it!".

I think you should look at your market as well. I am on the coast so a lot of buyers are second home folks. They tend to be boomers and would rather work with someone like themselves. Around here, it can be to your advantage to be 50 something.
