When someone moves to independent senior living in Lafayette, Indiana, this person typically has more free time if downsizing from a house to an apartment. There’s no responsibility for yard work, snow removal, exterior maintenance, or making repairs. Retiring from a full-time job and making this move might be the beginning of a rewarding new journey involving interesting part-time work or volunteer service.
Part-Time Jobs
Some pursue a part-time occupation they’ve always been interested in. Being a library assistant, for instance, may be appealing to someone who loves books and enjoys helping people. Another possibility would be sharing the management position at a thrift shop connected with a favorite charity. Some men and women want to begin an online resale business because they like finding great bargains at auctions and yard sales.
Consulting and Teaching
People with expertise in a certain field may be able to get a consulting gig with area businesses or teach a course at a technical college. Although some individuals worry about ageism when applying for this kind of work, these opportunities tend to be very open to older men and women. They have built up an impressive wealth of knowledge and experience over time.
Volunteer Service
After retirement and moving to independent senior living in Lafayette, Indiana, doing regular volunteer service may be appealing. Someone who appreciates spending time with companion animals might like volunteering at an animal shelter. Possibilities are also offered at local hospitals, schools, community centers, and organizations focusing on activism.
