Director magazine writes about Olderpreneurs

Listen to this item Director magazine writes about Olderpreneurs - PRIME Initiative - UK charity that helps people over 50 set up in business

“As prospects for a comfortable retirement fade across the employment spectrum, more over-50s than ever are taking the self-employment route to making money. Jane Simms met some ‘Olderpreneurs’ to find out more”

This is from the January 2007 issue of the UK’s Director magazine, which has a long article on Olderpreneurs, including five case studies (and quotes from Laurie South of PRIME - which runs this site).

The article continues “While many of these so-called ‘Olderpreneurs’ have self-employment thrust upon them - as a result of redundancy for example - others consciously choose to go it alone, often fulfilling a long-held dream.”
