    At 50, most everyone is at least halfway through life.

    Depends on your point of view.  For many years I couldn't even conceive of life after 45.  Now I am in my 60s and still living and still enjoying and still trying.

    Depends on the person, their state of mind, and physical condition.  I have seen folks who are 40 and decrepit, and know a guy in his 80's who does sub 4 hours Marathons.

    Now who is doing the comparison and why is the key.  A 20 year would say 50 is old, someone in their 40's maybe, in thier 60's probably not

  • No of course not!  Age is just a number.  It does not define who a person is at all!  Age is only a criteria commonly used by people as a yardstick to compare themselves to someone else. "Oh she is 10 years older than me so i am better and younger!"  lol This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at January 30, 2019 6:03 PM MST
