Default That sucks! Hope it works out in your favor..

I've kinda been in the same boat. The company I was working for got bought out. I lost my position in the company and I've basically started a new job with a new company-and that was not by my choice. I am leaving the new company because basically they are idiots.

What type of work do you do?

Default well, being in software and making big investments used to be ok, but no more

I used to think I would be able to retire (at all), but if I stay in s/w then I fully expect to have to work until death.
