Vance Opperman, publisher of Twin Cities Business Magazine, sent an extremely good letter to Wall Street Journal Editor- in-Chief Robert Thomson.  Click here for full text.  It's the subject of his "Open Letter" column in his Twin Cities Business Magazine.  Vance says, "People who keep working in their golden years should be celebrated, not denigrated." Couldn't agree more.  In fact, states that figure out how to tap the skills of older workers are going to find themselves better positioned economically and competitively.

    Fact is they have alot to offer the younger generation in terms of experience and wisdome. They typically are working because they want to and are not afraid that the job may go away which lends itself to greater contentment and less stress. Go for it!
