Between
55 and death. It's time to use the money you saved up. Use it and enjoy it.
Don't just keep it for those who may have no notion of the sacrifices you made
to get it. Remember there is nothing more dangerous than a son or
daughter-in-law with big ideas for your hard-earned capital.
·
Warning:
This is also a bad time for investments, even if it seems wonderful or
fool-proof. They only bring problems and worries. This is a time for you to
enjoy some peace and quiet.
·
Stop
worrying about the financial situation of your children and grandchildren, and
don't feel bad spending your money on yourself. You've taken care of them for
many years, and you've taught them what you could. You gave them an education,
food, shelter, and support. The responsibility is now theirs to earn their own
money.
·
Keep
a healthy life, without great physical effort. Do moderate exercise (like
walking every day), eat well, and get your sleep. It's easy to become sick, and
it gets harder to remain healthy. That is why you need to keep yourself in good
shape and be aware of your medical and physical needs. Keep in touch with your
doctor, do tests even when you're feeling well. Stay informed.
·
Always
buy the best, most beautiful items for your significant other. The key goal is
to enjoy your money with your partner. One day one of you will miss the other,
and the money will not provide any comfort then, enjoy it together.
·
Don't
stress over the little things. You've already overcome so much in your life.
You have good memories and bad ones, but the important thing is the present.
Don't let the past drag you down and don't let the future frighten you. Feel
good in the now. Small issues will soon be forgotten.
·
Regardless
of age, always keep love alive. Love your partner, love life, love your family,
love your neighbor, and remember: "A person is not old as long as they have
intelligence and affection."
·
Be
proud, both inside and out. Don't stop going to your hair salon or barber, do
your nails, go to the dermatologist and the dentist, keep your perfumes and
creams well stocked. When you are well-maintained on the outside, it seeps in,
making you feel proud and strong.
·
Don’t
lose sight of fashion trends for your age but keep your own sense of style. You
’ve developed your own sense of what looks good on you – keep it and be proud
of it. It ’s part of who you are.
·
ALWAYS
stay up to date. Read newspapers, watch the news. Go online and read what people
are saying but keep an open mind. Remember everything you read online is not
the truth. Make sure you have an active email account and try to use some of
those social networks. You'll be surprised at what old friends you'll meet.
·
Respect
the younger generation and their opinions. They may not have the same ideas as
you, but they are the future and will take the world in their direction. Give
advice, not criticism, and try to remind them that yesterday's wisdom still
applies today.
·
Never
use the phrase: “In my time.” Your time is now. If you ’re alive, you are part
of this time.
·
Some
people embrace their golden years, while others become bitter and surly. Life
is too short to waste your days on the latter. Spend your time with positive,
cheerful people, it'll rub off on you and your days will seem that much better.
Spending your time with bitter people will make you feel older and harder to be
around.
·
Do
not surrender to the temptation of living with your children or grandchildren
(if you have a financial choice, that is). Sure, being surrounded by family
sounds great, but we all need our privacy. They need theirs and you need yours.
Even then, do so only if you feel you really need the help or do not want to
live by yourself
·
Don't
abandon your hobbies. If you don't have any, make new ones. You can travel, hike,
cook, read, dance. You can adopt a cat or a dog, grow a kitchen garden, play
cards, checkers, chess, dominoes, golf.
·
Try
to go. Get out of the house, meet people you haven't seen in a while,
experience something new (or something old). The important thing is to leave
the house from time to time. Go to museums, go walk through a park. Get out
there.
·
Speak
in courteous tones and try not to complain or criticize too much unless you
really need to. Try to accept situations as they are.
·
Pains
and discomfort go hand in hand with getting older. Try not to dwell on them but
accept them as a part of life.
·
If
you've been offended by someone – forgive them. If you've offended
someone-apologize. Don't drag around resentment with you. It only serves to make
you sad and bitter. It doesn't matter who was right. Someone once said:
"Holding a grudge is like taking poison and expecting the other person to
die." Don't take that poison. Forgive, forget, and move on with your life.
·
Laugh.
Laugh away your worries Remember, you are one of the lucky ones. You managed to
have a life, a long one. Many never get to this age, never get to experience a
full life.

My
valued friends enjoy a peaceful life at this point in your life A the song says...Don't
worry... be happy. 🥰😘
