It's relatively solid through those times as well.

I appreciate it.

Yeah, I'll dive right in.

I won't take too long.

Over the course of the last few years, running the promo agency serving spirits and wine brands,

The average age of our ambassador was 53 years old.

Our best ones were in their 60s and 70s.

I became familiar with the role gig work played and contract work played for the over 50 professional, especially those in transition or those who might not have been able to save the money they anticipated.

I began to develop a real passion for those folks.

And Over 50 Pros is really an extension of

of the experience I've had in the spirits and wine space where I am looking to deliver information, resources, and inspiration to people over 50 who know they need to make a transition and just aren't sure what to do.

So that's what Over 50 Pros is all about, but it certainly had its roots in running the promo agency.

It's a huge percentage.

About 35% of the gig work that's done in the United States is done by people over 50 right now.

And people wouldn't really realize it.

But as you've learned, about half the people I've worked with in this category over the years do it for the same reasons you do.

It's fun money.

It's a way to stay engaged.

It's a way to have great conversations.

I love it.
