Perks of reaching 50 or being over 60 and heading towards 70!


01. Kidnappers are not very interested in you.
02. In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first.


03. No one expects you to run--anywhere.
04. People call at 9 pm and ask, did I wake you?


05. People no longer view you as a hypochondriac.
06. There is nothing left to learn the hard way.


07. Things you buy now won't wear out.
08. You can eat supper at 4 pm.
09. You can live without sex but not your glasses.
10. You get into heated arguments about pension plans.
11. You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge.
12. You quit trying to hold your stomach in no matter who walks into the room.
13. You sing along with elevator music.
14. Your eyes won't get much worse. 15. Your investment in health insurance is finally beginning to pay off.
16. Your joints are more accurate meteorologists than the national weather service.
17. Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can't remember them either.
18. Your supply of brain cells is finally down to manageable size.

And you notice these are all in Big Print for your convenience.

You know what? These are not even funny because they are all true! You forgot a couple:  You can say anything you want to and get away with it / You can use the statements "I forgot"  or "I don't remember" anytime, whether you did or not   / If you don't want to do something, you can say "i don't feel like it" and people will believe you

Thanks for the big print and the laugh.


Once I got past looking like my mother, my favorite things about being over 50 are:


1) discounts


2) not having to worry about the latest styles


3) saying "no" to things that you are not interested in


4) empty nest


5) grandchidren

 iT IS A CHANGE TO SEE THAT YOUR AGE AND THE NUMBER 4 RANKING ON THE LEADERBOARD ARE THE SAME.
