Now that I'm 40, nothing happened and nothing's changed.

41 was where that changed for me lol
Happy Birthday!
Nothing can stop whatโs coming.
๐ค As someone who has consistently not given a fuck throughout my life, I think I get to skip this evolutionary step.
Officially a senior!
I had you for like 58. You're wise beyond your years.

Thank you, my adolescent years counted for 2x
I meant about the liver. I can see the liver years in people.

I felt the same way when I turned 40. I thought the idea of a midlife crisis was a joke. Then around 48, I found myself fighting depression (at least my version of it) and everything in life was just blah and I was frustrated to why. Once I started talking about it I found out many other men had the same experience in late 40s, I think the timing of midlife has moved. Just be ready for it is my advice so you can recognize when it comes. Once I understood it was classic midlife crises thinking it was much easier to find a path through it. Donโt mean to be preachy on your note but I wished more older men had been open with me about their experiences at that age. Oh, and the awesome part of being 40โฆ. Everyone starts leaving you alone when you tell them you donโt want to do something๐
Your musings are always welcome and appreciated. Thanks for the advice Rob.
Does it feel like not wanting to really do anything anymore? I feel so unmotivated lately and just assume it is the end of winter. Going to read a goggins book to try to get some motivation to do something. My life is too much of a cakewalk.
For me it was probably more that everything seemed meaningless, so why put effort in. Looking back I realized that it was also the first time in my life I didnโt feel like I could remake myself into a new career or big life change if I wanted to. Kinda stuck with the life I had, and even though that life was awesome it felt like less sense of adventure. By 51-52ish I was out of it and now think this phase of life with grown kids is awesome. Less figuring out whatโs next, and more enjoying each day for the blessings it has.
40 was fun an I remember being underwhelmed. Each one after has been great and I haven't fallen apart yet or anything. Enjoy them and don't let your health decline! Eh, 46 this year and swore I had already done that. Did some math, yep. So I got an extra year of life, rather nice. Happy 40th! May your Bitcoin stack, health and everything in general grow in abundance!
Thank you sitting guy. ๐ค
