From my perspective at 71 years old, one thing that you can count on is change. Just when you think that you have things figured out and you can see it going the same way for another 20 years, bam, some major change comes along and there goes your long term plan. A friend had a good small excavation business going that he thought would keep him going for as long as he needed income. He had nephews who worked for him part time. He made adequate income.
