I don't think I am marketable anymore.

I tried to do something new in my workplace, turns out it didn't work out, I came back to my old job.

Far too risky to try something new. My industry not like IT, go for training you can update, because you really need practical experience. Training courses also very expensive. 2 days like 2-3k and too theory

can be done.

but its very competitive. I got to do a lot of research and even attend other trainings to be able to give out trainings.

I made a very big mistake, as said, I joined a big company, they put me into one section in their accounting dept, that is not relevant to general skill sets of accounts. Over the years I lost my competitiveness. To even ask for transfer to another section, is not feasible as the company has this Kiasu culture, of not wanting to share their rice bowl skills.

I more prefer to do tution. As I am passionate to teach my kids. I sit down with them almost every night and weekend, to teach them maths, english, BM and mandarin (even though I don't know mandarin - but i ask my relatives to teach me then I teach them) - train the trainer.

I am thinking of tutoring for higher age like secondary, that's where the money is.

maybe I can start part time for primary chinese school after tution, but I need to brush up my mandarin first.

I will start self study of maths and add maths.

my father worked until 72yo. Only MCO stopped his career. If it weren't for covid, he would have worked on.

That kept him on...prolonged his life and made him active

I still try to exercise as much as I can

I am also thinking of bringing my kids for hiking
