Yep. I've middle aged coworkers who are saying quite emphatically that they can't imagine retiring in tech -- they know they'll need to move to another industry well before retirement, in part because of AI reducing the need for certain skillsets. They also know they're too old to be considered a 'good hire' due to ageism in tech. Most seem to have made plans to try and move on to something relatively low skill for the last part of their working lives. I know one of their plans is to do a food truck.
I have a younger wife still working, I'm tending to my small farm. But it's nowhere near profitable. Just really nice on my brain.
