As Betty Davis said in All About Eve, “Fasten your seat belts, it’s going to be a bumpy night.” Unemployment rates are approaching 10% and you can hear the fear in a lot of conversations. But the very nature of change invariably creates new opportunities. Employers who are reluctant to hire full-time employees often seek free lancers, consultants, and part-timers to get the work done. Creative job seekers are using bridge jobs to get their foot in the door, gain new experience, and build a resume.

No wonder so many older Americans ask their children to “Promise me you will never put me in a nursing home.” It doesn’t have to be that way. Beth Baker, author of Old Age in a New Age, describes dozens of facilities that really are homes.
