Yeah, but how many can pay something equivalent to the big boys?
A friend's father retired from the Navy as a former boomer captain and went into industry as an inspector for power plants, working for one of the large insurers. Not a job that's going away, not a small company that might or might not make it. Just steady employment for the next 15 years or so (which, given how long ago it was, he's well beyond) until he wants to retire for good.
