10 Best Jobs For Retirees In Africa by frankbin2000(m): 10:31am On Jan 29, 2016
Are you retired but not tired and seeking for the best jobs for retirees in your country? I have compiled 10 best jobs for retirees that are workable in African countries. The listed jobs can also be obtainable in other parts of the world as I experienced in one of my visit in the Asian country of Thailand.

So to cut the story short, below are the 10 Best Jobs for Retirees in Africa:

1. Adjunct teacher

Take the knowledge you gained on the job and share it with students as an adjunct teacher at a school. The hours are flexible and you’ll have the holidays off.

2. Farming

This is a very lucrative and easy job a retiree can venture into. You can be a poultry, catfish, snail or piggery farmer. You can also own a cassava, yam or vegetable farm. Have labourers do this while you supervise. Just choose anyone that you have interest in and expand with the help of few workers.

3. Consultant

Depending on your field, you may choose to consult for your past organization or others on a project basis. Before you officially retire, put out word that you’ll be consulting, and check out [url]UpWork.com[/url] to find potential leads.

4. Crafter


Working in retirement doesn’t have to mean less time for your hobbies. Instead, look for a way to combine your hobbies and some income. You can sell your crafts on Etsy, or give music or other kinds of skill-based lessons.

5. Volunteer

If you’re working more to keep busy than for financial reasons, becoming a volunteer can have rewards that go far beyond a paycheck. Statistics, has shown that persons over age 65 spent nearly twice as many hours volunteering as any other age group last year.
