When to act your age

When to act your age? When things get serious. 
  1.  Illness, yours or a loved one. No time for evading responsibilities. Man and women up as the case may be and take care of business. 
  2. Money. Age has some advantages, I say make the most of yours. As Jim Rohn said, " count and measure carefully".
  3. Staying employable. Being replaced by a cheaper, more skilled young person would really suck. They will dump you when the spread sheet says time for you to go. To paraphrase Brian Tracy, "your earning potential is your greatest resource after your health". I say keep your up to date and valuable. 
  4. The future, preparing for the shit storm we will all surely face. Clear your debts, save some money, make contingencies for what is to come.
  5. Your current health. Working out and staying fit may not help us live longer, but it will make the time left to us more comfortable and mobile. And, help keep us playing.
Best, 

​David Story
