hughrose.com

As I ease into retirement, I MAY do some consulting. I created this website about an hour ago. It needs work. I may expand it to include other than my entertainment industry experience (I have a lot of other heavy industry experience). This is just a place holder. Give me your thoughts. I want to keep it to just a few pages. When I had a website 20 years ago, the most useful thing was a downloadable resume for lawyers desperately seeking someone with my expertise to name as an expert witness.

I agree, I plan to ease into retirement, but covering my bases. I'm not opposed to consulting if it presents itself. $5/month for a website and email.

Charge LOTS of money, Hugh. You are not likely to over-estimate your hourly worth, and I suggest an hourly fee, rather than a project fee. If you overshoot it, then I guess you will have to find something else to do with your valuable time. My friend.

I'm 60. I know a lot of people who are retired or set to retire. I ask them questions. Particularly the retired ones. I ask them if retirement was a big mistake. So far, their responses are unanimous.

Here is where hughrose.com takes me.



I swear I did not look up your arrest record.

Hopefully you will not want to do "consulting." You deserve a new life, one with new learning and new adventures. Don't take this time of your life to live in the past.

That sounds like good advice. Do you need the money, Hugh? If not, then do you need to fill the time? I suspect the latter will not be a problem for you. Do whatever the fk you want.

You're just easing into trolling us, right?

One of my hs buddies died a few weeks ago....we're 57. I walked away from the corporate world @ 48....

I'm in much better shape physically, mentally, and financially than where I was back in '08-09....by a long shot....no regrets

Your DNS hasn't propagated out, so I can't see it.
