I quit my job, and am on garden leave although I don't tell people or recruiters because I feel that will diminish my chances to get another one.

The truth is, I have enough money in crypto to live off for a long time If I wanted to, but I do want a job where I can be effective and build another company up as I have done many times; though I am feeling increasingly like ageism is becoming my enemy (although I transitioned to management years ago, which I felt would protect me)

We'll see what happens, I definitely don't want to go back to an office like my former job was trying to force me to.
