Michael Caine's personal assistant
Michael Caine and his assistant were seen walking around London. Caine had a cane (no pun intended). If you've been considering being a caregiver or personal assistant to a high-net-worth individual or celebrity, then one avenue that you might consider is working with someone who is retired.
Being a personal assistant to an A-list star while they are in their prime is ultra-competitive. For example, if a job to a celebrity like Michael Caine (20 years ago) were posted online, you might expect that up to 1,000 resumes could be submitted. But when Hollywood stars are in their "twilight years," it's a lot less competitive. Also, it's not as taxing of a job with the long hours.
What's it like to be an assistant to a star like Michael Cane?
Working as an assistant to Michael Caine nowadays would be a lot slower of a pace, and some PAs might like that. When stars are at the top of their game and jumping from movie to movie, it's a very demanding job. Assistants don't get much sleep in those situations, but if you want to take the road less traveled and work for an aging actor, it just may suit you better.
Being a registered nurse, for example, might fit your professional needs. That way, you could be a companion to an actor and help then with their day-to-day activities. It certainly won't be as glamorous as flying around on private jets and going to red carpet movie premiers, but it could afford you a handsome salary and stable career.
