What are jobs that for someone your age, you would consider them to be good jobs?

My grandfather so often used to tell me

"There are no stupid jobs, there are only stupid people"

That means that no matter what you do as a job, if it suits you, if you like it and if you feel comfortable doing it, then that job is a good job.

You need a sewer and street cleaner much more than you will ever need a luxury car manufacturer because the one is a necessity if you want to be able to live a healthy life while the other one is totally superfluous.

Good jobs come in a great variety and none is better than the other if you like what you do.

Real estate or property management.

All jobs are good jobs.
Whether a good job is right for you or not as very little to do with age

I know a managing director and (myself included) several company owners

[AI Opinion]

I’m in my early 40s, and at this stage I look for four things: impact, flexibility, growth, and reasonable pay. Roles I’d consider “good jobs” now:

- Senior roles in my field (manager, director, principal specialist)
- Consulting or advisory work (education, strategy, careers)
- Teaching / lecturing part‑time plus another project
- Product management or learning & development roles in companies
- Remote or hybrid knowledge work with autonomy

The “good” part is less the title and more: healthy culture, learning opportunities, and time for family and health.
