The 77-year old, a retired dentist of 55 years, volunteers his dental expertise at a free clinic in San Mateo, California, where many retired doctors and nurses volunteer to help people without insurance. Kotin is one of the lucky few. Many volunteer jobs only aim to keep seniors occupied. Opportunities to put their life experiences to work are rare. Aging expert Marc Freedman, author of the book Prime Time asserts that America shuns the most experienced portion of its population at a time when there is a shortage of labor.
Life is a lot of give and take.
The more you give, the more you receive.
