brit-gob 9 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I'm interested to hear, for those of us on or near the other side of "mid-life", did you have a crisis? What is mid-life anyway? Link to post Share on other sites

JA2340 16 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 according to legend, the average lifespan is "four score and ten" years, a score = 20, so average lifespan is 90. Mid-life, then, is around 45. I must have had one, but cannot remember it! Almost 20 years ago, now! Link to post Share on other sites

Alexander L 80 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Average life expectancy: Japan - 83.91 Singapore - 83.75 Commie Hong Kong - 82.12 Aussie - 81.90 Canada - 81.48 UK - 80.17 US - 78.49 Source: CIA - https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/rankorder/2102rank.html The yank figure dragged lower by the nightly drive-by shootings So from that figure, my mid-life crisis passed without me even knowing about it. I'll know when to expect the next one, for which I would no doubt get a divorce, a pot belly, lose all my hair, and purchase a used porsche 911 (993). Link to post Share on other sites

seemore 66 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I noticed it around 40 I got a bit depressed and wasn't happy I had a nice home and family in a great location but there seemed to be something missing. Bought the bike which is obvious but just satarted to question what the whole point is. Started snowboarding again which is good (but expensive when you live in Perth). seemore Link to post Share on other sites

cal 6 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Ahem I don't think the mid-life thing is supposed to zone in on one point in time exactly in the middle of what is your life. Just saying. Link to post Share on other sites
