because your that much closer to kicking the bucket. You know death, what most people seem to fear for some odd reason.

Up until 50 your body is just quietly tagging along. After 50 it's like a once quiet wife that starts letting you know ALL the stupid stuff you did to it the past 50 years! It can remember that slide into 3rd, that side kick you were not quite fast enough to dodge, that cut you tried to make on that wet field, when you dumped that cycle...

Can't see it as bad, just another step along the journey.

Most of the fear nowadays is economic. Between worrying about health coverage and whether or not you'll get kicked to the curb for someone younger and cheaper, it's a tough time for a lot of folks.

All imo of course.

But you own your own business so it's not as big a deal to you. And business is good if I remember correctly. Grats on your hard work. Consider it a blessing.

I will be 61 in June.

I don't feel 60, most of the time. I don't act 60.
