What do you put on your resume when you just want a job to pay the

bills until you are able to get your new business or career started?

I am serious. I have been out of work for a long time. After realizing that I will never get a regular full time job again because I'm over 50, I decided to take some classes that are aimed at a new career/ business I want to start. However, in the meantime, I need to bring in some money.

How do you compose your resume in such a situation so that it doesn't automatically go in the garbage? I am way overqualified and overeducated for the part time seasonal work I'm thinking of applying for.

Ideas?

1. Not looking myself, but I've wondered about this. Seems to me that maybe you could imply

that you're not looking for a "real" job, but just need something to provide some pin money and keep youself busy (even if that's not the case).

But how to do that I don't know.
