[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Middle age is 30 to 50. After 50 you are not middle aged, you are old.[/quote] Says the 21-year old. :roll: [/quote] Actually I am 42. In late middle age.[/quote] Both of my parents worked for 25 more years past 50. My dad was older than 50 when he went to medical school. They did a lot of traveling, helped raise grandchildren and were generally very active for a long time after 50. My grandmother had a baby after 50. Maybe that colors my perspective, but I disagree that 50 means old.[/quote] 50 still is old. You can get AARP membership. Old doesn't have to be a bad thing. And it doesn't mean you aren't active or in good shape. [/quote] I don't think that a person can be defined as old the day they qualify for aarp membership. The dictionaries I have consulted generally define middle age as 45-65. 50 is on the lower end of that.[/quote]
