After I lost my last corporate job at 61 and I still needed to make money and no one wanted to hire a 61 yr old who knew so little about technology...I embarked on childcare.

I had full day jobs five days a week and made $100 a day.

Evening jobs started at $5 an hour way back then and $10 is not unreasonable today.

One NYear's Eve I took care of a little girl and made $120. People really want to go out and they have the money.

I enjoyed those years and had the energy and good health back then.

All that's changed and I'm glad I did all that I did.
