Can a man change his job at the age of 47? Yes, you can. 47 years old is still young, it is the prime of life. At this time, job-hopping is the most appropriate. People of this age have experience, ability, technology, connections, time, thinking and space. Society needs such people, and they should jump ship for themselves and their families. Of course, if you don't have anything but slogans, that's another matter, and job-hopping is more than one bargained for.
