I’m Turning 50

50th30 days from today I’ll be 50 years old. I don’t think turning 50 is a bad thing. I don’t usually stress over birthdays so this one should be reached without much fanfare. Things are pretty good right now. I have a solid career that I’ll be retiring from in the next 3 to 5 years. My relationship is very strong. We’ve almost been together for 10 years. I have several hobbies that keep me busy in my free time. I would like to be making more money but that’s what I get for taking a public sector job. I’m pretty materialistic and always want more things but I hope in my older age I’ll put less importance on items. I would like to be thinner and be a bit healthier but I make choices that won’t make that happen unless I change my ways. Overall though I’m pretty happy and pretty content in my life right now. I don’t think turning 50 will have too much of an effect on me. It’s a milestone birthday but I don’t expect much to change.

  1. I hope we will get a 50th birthday podcast from you.
    Even after all this time I still miss you amazing podcasts.

    Please reconsider Paul.

  2. Sounds pretty good — personally, I’m trying to remember what 50 was like! When asked what age I would like to be (I’m 67) I think 50 is about right. Money worries are less, still in good health, and young enough to frolic with the boyfriend as often as you would like — yep, 50 sounds pretty good!
