[quote=Anonymous]15 years apart, late 30s and early 50s. Young kids. So far, so good. Many of the arguments against marrying an older spouse are mitigated by money, and we are fortunate to have more than enough. We both still work and will likely retire together within the next 5 years because we can. I will be sad if I lose him first or he gets sick, but I will be able to afford plenty of help if/when that time comes. I've already lost a friend in her 30s to cancer, so age isn't everything and life is unpredictable. I know I took a risk with the age gap, but so far, so good. He's still very physically fit, a lifelong athlete, fashionable, up on current culture, and his career keeps him young. The biggest challenge in our life right now related to age is just that he has some friends that too old for me, so we keep some aspects of our social lives separate. [/quote]
