| Old is 65 elderly is 80 |
🤣 |
| I had an "elderly pregnancy" when i was over 40. |
As is typical, demented seniors are making fools of themselves. Setting elderly at 65 is already generous when it is legally defined as 60 (42 U.S. Code § 6862). |
Oh! Karma is on its way to you! |

I think elderly is in your eighties -- that's when I've seen most of my family deterioriate. Old is when your health starts really declining, and the only thing you can talk about are your aches and pains and medical appointments.
I'm 56 and my kids call me old but they are 13 and 15 so I take their perspectives with a grain of salt and laugh them off. |
You must be a lawyer. So dry. |
It is very on-brand for the elderly to think laws and rules don't apply to them. |
| There is also a category in demography referred to as the “oldest old,” defined variously as 85+ or 90+ |
| There are other codes saying 62 and 65. Which rule ya wanna follow? |
| I think a better question is what age is “young”. If you are not young, you are old and it has little to do with numbers! |
+1. Social Security tells boomers that the "normal retirement age" is 67. Does that work for pp? |

Elderly/old 85+
I’ve known many healthy active 75+ but 85 is when most slow down |
Their minds slow down substantially by 60, and can't learn anything new by around 65. |
Oh I beat that good.
