30 Shocking Retirement Facts to Help You Prepare Your Nest Egg

2. Older People Value Older Workers

One thing that keeps many seniors up at night is the thought of getting laid off before retirement. That’s partly because finding a job as you age might be more difficult.

But is that really true? Well, it depends on who you ask. 51% of baby boomers say that they value older workers more since they claim they are better at solving problems and have more experience. On the other hand, only 22% of millennials share the same opinion.

So if you’re worried about the possibility of losing your job before you retire, keep that in mind so you’ll know where to look for a new position.
