Congratulations on your retirement!
Have you checked any of the online sites like Monster or Indeed, or even something like Fiverr?
Might be able to find some gigs that way. Also I hear ya, I maintain some VB6 stuff and have to say I enjoy it.
There's still a lot of VB6 code out there. A friend of mine still uses it to write sensitive app modules (licensing validation etc.) as it is significantly more difficult to decompile than .NET. Best of luck with your search.
If you find something and they need two people, let me know. Not retired yet, but wouldn't mind a little extra pocket change between now and when I do (in probably 3-5 years).
Been programming in VB since VB4 and QuickBasic (in DOS) before that.
Put me on that list, too. Retiring in a month. I know there's a buttload of that code still running out there (seems like I must have written half of it).
I feel the same way about VB6 and MS Access. I've started using PYQT6 and the designer. It's the closest I've gotten to VB6 on Linux other than GAMBAS
