Already started taking them. I was operated on for prostate cancer last year and everything is looking good but you never know how long you got left on this old Earth.

I took voluntary redundancy end of last year, but instead of having a few months off before getting another job it's turned out that I'm now a full time carer and so though my regular outgoings have reduced so has my income, fortunately lack of time and space has curtailed my spending, but will need to start reducing some of my collection to make way for whatever must haves do appear such as the JJD Boudicca and Chariot / Roman Cavalry that's in the works somewhere !:wink2:

74 years old here. I'm staying young by staying active. Everyday I walk as much as I can, averaging between 5.5-7 miles a day. I started this when I had a knee replacement 3 years ago. Since then I have lost over 70 lbs in weight and my doctor took me off the blood pressure and cholesterol medicines she had me on.

86 last September ... Still active and selectively collecting, however got blind-sided by a malignant colon tumor (successfully excised, no further treatment required). Then hit with two stokes and a heart attack. Still this side of the sod and recovering from all. God Bless the Lord. Maintaining personal blog going after 11 and a half years. See; https://arnhemjim.blogspot.com. To All, A Happy and Healthy New Year!

Coming up to 62 years of age, but my lifelong military service has affected my body. Worn out by being in the infantry. Thank God for Veteran's Affair! Still keep as active as possible. Have chickens, cats, Native Fauna and stray animals to keep me going plus my daily walk to the post box outside our rural property allows for some good walking while taking in the bucolic setting.

I turned 50 this past September. When did that happen??? {sm3} Still try to get a 2 mile run in 3/days a week but it's getting harder. COVID definately took it's toll on my lungs/ endurance. I did get my black belt in Kung Fu 2 years ago and occasionally wrestle with the boys on my sons high school team. Pretty happy that he hasnt scored any back points on me this season! {sm3}{sm4}

I remember the past 20 years, but it still seems to me like I just graduated from college a couple of years ago. I'll watch a movie, or a TV show, or hear a song, and think, "It wasn't too long ago that that came out." Then I'll see the copyright in the credits, or on the label, and realize, "Holy crap! That came out when I was in high school!"
Only in the past few years, since I turned 50 (8 years ago), have I started feeling my age. And I feel comfortable calling a young man "Son". "Hey, there! Do you really want to do that, Son?"
Prost!

Big decision, so many considerations, usually unfortunately most often involving money. Overriding imo is getting some quality of life aspects, while health still remains a non issue. If you had a crystal ball you would know which way to jump. Generally you never look back once making up your future path. Robin.
