Am sure he can, especially if healthy and humble.
You go humble like person wey dey go embassy interview, like American or Canada or others.


He can also do it by himself, with partners, or by adding value to other people's goals and dreams.


All these can be done legitimately even at 57 or 67.

Everything na packaging even if you're sixty. Just find a specialized skill that you can offer the company. You're not going to apply for entry level position of course.

At 47?
Guy stop thinking like a 20-year old.
Kill the mentality of working for someone.

Don't tell me you didn't save a reasonable amount of money for the 18 years you worked there.
Be independent please.

It's not as easy, sir. Not everyone has the acumen, and not everyone can hustle o. Even if you find the business you like, the whole capital may be gone before you know, because of lack of experience. Meanwhile, the Nigerian jungle has a way of frustrating small businesses ...

U answered well... not everyone can succeed in or do business. Some may just be wired to work for someone throughout life and retire..

yes, but most times the person should come with experience and specific knowledge or an expert not as a new job seeker. most times the person is working and then gets a better offer based on the knowledge he possesses

It is very possible.

My organisation recently hired a 56yre man as marketer who had already retired.

Within the first 3 months, he brought in sales of over 250million and has put my company under intense pressure to meet customers'
orders.

Life is full of surprises. you never know when yours will come so just keep applying and the Grace of GOD will always make a way.

Goodluck
