I like my job and I've done quite well in my field. Have probably reached the top of my ambition/ability. I'm approaching 50 so unless I move very soon there's little prospect of any new and exciting job between now and retirement.
I like my job, but the idea of doing it for the next 15 years is miserable. I worked for the same company for 20 years previously but I had 8 different jobs is that time. Other than that the longest I've stayed in 3 1/2 years.
I don't particularly want to retire early, but how am I going to do the same job for 15 years?
Or am I wrong, is it possible for people in their 50s to keep their career moving? That's probably dependent on the field, but I don't see it in mine (finance)
