Description: The third age can be viewed as a period between the traditional full-time employment career building period and fulltime retirement and leisure. Individuals combine work, volunteerism and leisure in different ways during this period. Some actuaries look at this period as one during which they might want to start a small consulting business. There is no generally accepted practice at present and maybe none will emerge. This article will look at issues related to the third age from the perspective of actuaries who move from full-time regular employment with an established business into a consulting practice. I will share personal experience in making such a transition.
