The The Wall Street Journal calls it the 60-year career. Evidence suggests it's the new thing, that 40-year careers and retirement in your mid-60s may be a movement of the past. Long life and good health contribute to this as does lack of retirement, inflation, cost of living, etc. Our own #ReturnUtah program was featured in a #YourMoneyBriefing podcast discussion on how #careerreentry programming may be a long term solution to hiring and retention over time, as longer careers could very well lead to the normalization of career breaks. Check out the episode "How to Avoid Burnout in a 60-Year Career." Also available on Audacy, Inc. and YouTube.

It was a thrilling exchange as the latest #ReturnUtah participants met with @lt.govhenderson and shared their personal #returntowork journeys. This is a talented bunch, already making their mark. The state of #Utah is thrilled to have them.
