Yes, it is sad in that sense. However, not working is a sadder existence! :D
Still operating my small buiness (just me) is good, but I find myself having less time to build it. However, there is more opportunity for me at the moment to spend the majority of my time working for a larger company, though the one I work for is not large really, but it is a decent company in many respects and global. It gives opportunities I wouldn't have if I was working only like I was prior.
I have had jobs in the past working with outdated technologies, and it can be demoralizing.
Yes. It is a growing issue and is cited as one of the reason good people leave.

Oh, I didn't realise you also had a small business. That's awesome! You are full of surprises.
My partner is actually looking to finish up working for big corporate and start her own small business and I'm really excited for her... it's definitely risky, but it's also well worth the try... especially if I can provide some income stability.
Yeah, I started it almost ten years ago as I wasn't able to do what I really wanted to do working for the company I was. I tried to get them to support me, but they said no. So I left and did it myself. It took time, but I was doing okay at it.
It is risky but I also am trying to take the approach that it is better to try and fail, than play it safe and just survive at life. At the end of the day, no matter who we are or what we have done, no one will care to remember us, so we may as well try and do something we want to succeed at, than grind at something for someone else.
It isn't always successful, but it can still be satisfying.
Edit: Good luck to her!!
The support is a huge plus.
