        I’m in my 40s and incredibly comfortable, money isn’t an issue at all. Bit numb to life, though but I was living out of my car in my 20s.

          50’s have been fantastic so far. The 40’s numbness gave way to less fucks given somewhere along the way.

            Can I give less fucks than now? We’ll, I look forward to numbness subsiding.

          That rings really true. I’ve got a few more health issues, but nothing terrible. My material and financial situation is so much better than in my 20s. But still, I’m just a bit numb about enjoying things and kinda nostalgic for when I felt more. And I miss all of the easy friendships from my college and post college years.

            I think that’s why some of us spend $300 to buy a GI Joe tiger force helicopter. To try and feel that joy you did so many years ago. Don’t feel depressed, just maybe that I’ve experience so many things that the fun has gone away. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

        I’m 32 and have given up on pretty much all of the hopes and dreams that I had in my teens and 20s.

      I agree. I finally have the money to do the things I wish I could have done in my 20s. The problem now is that my body isn’t quite what it used to be.

          I can see where this trend is heading. I also fully understand the phrase, “Youth is wasted on the young.”
