Us gals in our 60s and 70s can start a business as well. I’ve finally got my own space and am starting a business. Plus I work out of my home full time. Being single and pushing 70 I definitely need to supplement my income because I don’t want to work for someone else for ever. Life is good!!

She’s an inspiration! Showed it to my wife. My wife started making decorative pillows about 10 years ago but stopped because she couldn’t get the e-commerce figured out.
