Before we talk Plan B, let's talk Plan A. The article equates age (and obsolescence) to Plan A. This is incorrect. Age is not a plan.
Plan A is continually improving your skills. Breadth and depth. Know one thing fairly well? Become excellent at it. Is there something way outside your wheelhouse? Get closer to it.
You can't do everything, but chances are there is something you can do to improve your overall skill set. The great thing about Plan A is that age has nothing to do with it. It's a personal choice that you control.
