Yes, society is not the youth-obsessed

You
will have more money. In Australia, 50-69-year-olds
hold more than 40 percent of the nation’s wealth. We’re not saying that money
makes you happy, but being able to afford holidays, meals out, nice experiences
and all is nice.
You
don’t sweat the small stuff. As you accumulate
experience, you gain perspective. Chances are you’ve gone through life’s big
challenges by the time you’re in your 40s and 50s. Little things don’t bother
you as much as they did when you were younger.
You
will have found your sense of style. Once you’ve
reached your 30s or 40s, you will know what suits your body shape. Wearing
clothes that make the most of your looks is a huge confidence boost.
This
is a great time to be alive. No doubt, the world
has its problems and uncertainties, but the opportunities available to us are many.
Travel, hobbies, the chance to try out new experiences such as Tinder – they
are there for the taking.
You
have the power. Certain age groups are increasing.
More Australians than ever are in their 50s and older. This gives them real
power, as they become increasingly attractive to politicians, advertisers and
businesses. Organisations and industries will queue up to provide them with the
services and products they want.
