very difficult for sure. Certainly known a few who did, but then found the age gap, managing very young people, too difficult with the completely different values system. They were happy finding very fulfilling jobs in other positions: mostly part time or part of the year, people i have met switched into:

self employed custom construction installer, coffee roastmaster, rv driver for his wife, accountant, estate tax preparer for H&RBlock, temp consultant with a specialty,

ageism discrimination is real, but also understandable in today's rapidly changing world. Same reason why Belicheck sin't getting a job either.
