Average lifespan is 77 for women, she’s not far off.

Also I’m middle aged, I’ve never thought of that. I need to go have my midlife crisis now.

Shitty time to have to buy a Mazda Miata. But we’re going to need you to go ahead and get one purchased.

I bought mine at 25. Does that mean I’ll be dead by 50?

Ha, that was my dream car when I was 16! Or an RX7, I think it was called.

“Middle age” has never been about being exactly 50% of the way through the average life span. It’s much less about “how much time you have left” and more about the point where you can’t realistically think of yourself as young anymore. The effects of age become impossible to ignore, compounding, and increasingly obvious.

It’s basically just your 40s-60s. Not the exact midpoint.

It’s better to do it later in life anyway that way you actually have some money to go mad with
