I agree with what you say but there is a great difference between 32 and 40+. I am currently 55 and have monitored the job market nearly continuously for all of my career. The last time that I was able to find a good job was when I was 35. I have attended school most of my adult life and have earned 3 degrees and 4 professional licenses since that time. The doors start to close at around 35. Most are closed at 40, incidently the age when the Age Discrimination in Employment Act ostensibly begins to protect workers (It doesn't, but that is the topic of another discussion.), and nearly all are closed by 45 unless you are a preferred minority.

Been there. Done that.
