I knew someone 64 who got into accounting and is doing very well - accounting is like nursing - there's always a need - If you like it, all the better. Plus you have the age factor to your advantage for jobs because you would be seen as seasoned, experienced and mature. Don't let age be a barrier for anything, who's gonna care in 100 years? Good luck!

Creative accounting could certainly be enjoyable while it lasted. Madoff style Believe me, it's certainly alive and well at big accounting firms (Ernst and Young, etc.) as well as at most caps at tax time.
