[quote=Anonymous]I'm 57 F and life feels about as good as it gets. Kids happy and successfully launched and we have close relationships with all of them - - college and grad school paid for - house the way we like it - lots of disposable income because we are both still working (but both of our jobs are pretty low stress now - as consultants we work about 20 hours a week these days and it's perfect - our parents are all deceased, so while sad, that's a huge source of stress gone, and also a source of $$$ thanks to small inheritance that made us even more financially secure - we travel monthly, work out together or walk our dogs daily, have enough saved for retirement if one of us dropped dead tomorrow - and we enjoy hosting friends at home often. Writing all of this down makes me realize we are coasting after a long climb - it's pretty awesome! And, fwiw, 57 is way better than 50 and way, WAY better than 40. 40's imo were the hardest and least fun. [/quote]
