I'm no expert but I think if you have Amazon Prime you can get 2 day free delivery. When it leaves probably depends on whether you get the extended warranty.

At 50 for me everything went down hill, at 61, I started coming back...at 63 I'm hoping for another 15-18 years but realize that everyday is a gift and my days are numbered. I could go anytime, or last quite a while, just don't know, so I just keep on keepin' on. In the meantime, enjoy life as much as I can.

I'm almost 63 and have never had a mid life crisis yet. Not sure if I should be nervous about that or not.

Based on my recent guitar buying sickness, I'd say I'm in mine now. I suspect it will end when I'm dead, or when I finally buy a convertible.

I believe mid life crisis starts when you are about 35 years old, have never ridden as much as a motorized lawnmower, and you go out and by yourself a Harley. Mid life crisis ends, if you escape your Harley ownership with your life or at least you cognitive ability intact, when you sell the Harley and buy a mini van. It's really all very predictable. As the Bible says somewhere: "There is nothing new under the sun." Indeed.

I inherited my parents' mid life crisis when I graduated from high school and had to earn the GI Bill to put myself through college because there was no savings for college. So far it's lasted about 30 years, but at least I'm not in terrible debt.

Brace yourself.
Your crisis is still coming.
You're going to live to be 124.

The Beatles wrote a song about it, "When I'm 64."

Has anyone figured out CatDaddy's early response? I must be too dense to understand, someone may need to give me the ' LONG ' version,

For men, it's when you're about 35 and married and a killer twenty-something gives you "the look". If you decide "yes" it goes on for the rest of your life; if "no", you go out and get yourself a good roadster, and it's over.

For women it's the day they stop carding you for booze. It ends the day you actually get furniture you like.

It starts at 30 (you are shocked to find that you are no longer young)
and it ends at 70 (you admit to yourself that you are old).

Mine hit at 48. Empty nest and a thought about somethings got to change because I'm not living the rest of my life this way. Thank God I got through it without major damage. Positive change did come along and I don't have to many regrets but regrets just the same.

This is really a good answer :-)

It starts the day you look around yourself and say, "Is this all I'm ever going to amount to?""

The interim can be chaotic, so walk softly.

It ends the day you say, "You know, this might be enough."

Never had one. I'm a twenty-something mind trapped in a sixty-something body.
