It's actually funny to see so many old businessmen spend so much money on trying to stay young with very average results compared to the random "young" men in their sixties at your local gym who simply kept working out for several decades just because they were enjoying it.

The original post is pure bourgeois nonsense. Fitness isn’t about looking young—it’s about health, discipline, and pride. Businessmen investing in themselves? That’s called *success*. Meanwhile, the “random gym guys”? Probably just chasing vanity too, but without the bank account.

The real joke is assuming fitness is a moral high ground. Who cares if they “enjoyed it”? If they’re lifting, they’re still part of the same capitalist grind. And let’s not pretend gym culture isn’t just another luxury. The article about “trying to look rich” (https://www.facebook.com/entrepreneurshipfacts/posts/trying-to-look-rich-is-the-fastest-way-to-stay-broketoo-many-people-spend-money-/1470557774375058/) proves the exact opposite: people waste money on status symbols, not health.

This isn’t about “average results”—it’s about privilege. The gym guys? They’re not “enjoying it”—they’re performing for likes. The businessmen? They’re building legacies. Stop romanticizing midlife couch potatoes.
