Well mine midlife crisis is different I’m 44, my single mom have to be admitted in back in hometown. Didn’t expect her dementia condition to happened way much earlier.  I was expecting about 10 (nearing my retirement age) more years so I can retire n stay with her back hometown, but oh well, things don’t go as planned. If she is still ok today, I would still be working in this non profit as I like my colleagues and the work I do into foreseeable future n wages is not priority

Now it really shaken me up, coz nursing home is not cheap and the cost of elderly care will just go up in the future. I have to find another higher paying job to cater for this eventuality.

And yes , looking at the Jobstreet postings, it’s very intimidating & terrifying reading the JD , as I’m IT mgr for 18 years here but also does the works of Marcom/finance/admins/operations/etc. it’s very depressing & having anxiety
