I'm Mark O'Keefe. I'm fired UP!
Happier, healthier and wealthier after 50?
I'm living proof that you can be happier, healthier and wealthier in your 50s than you were in your 40s and even your 30s.
If it happened to me after my crisis, it can happen to you in these challenging times we face.
My mission is to inspire men 50 and up to live their lives on fire with their God-given strengths.
Subscribe to my monthly newsletter to get inspiring stories, solid research and proven tips to not just survive but thrive in your 50s and beyond.
As a bonus, I will send you my eBook showing you tips and tricks to leverage LinkedIn in your 50s. Thanks to LinkedIn, an executive recruiter contacted me seven years ago about a full-time VP job I'm still working and enjoying.

My story: from Fired to Fired UP
They called it a reorganization. Unfortunately, I was the only one reorganized.
I was fired at age 50.
How bad was it? Newsweek ran an iconic cover image that year of a man wearing a dark suit, unable to move, face in the sand, under the headline, "Beached White Male."
I was among the 56% of people forced out of a job after age 50, according to analysis of a government study of 20,000 Americans. According to that same study, the chance of recovering your annual income after getting shown the door is only 10%.
I beat the odds. I bounced back. I got fired UP after 50.
Now I want to give back to people like you.
