You are magnificent. Thank you for standing up. I'm assuming the court case is proceeding. I am so, so sorry. Do something very nice for yourself every day.

Well, I've been virtuous all my life and now I'm broke. I deserve those resume virtues, big time. 😊 (No, I really have been. Gave thousands to keep innocent people out of jail when my own income was peanuts, took care of an elderly father completely by myself, and lost tons in income and assets because of that, etc., and took my own tragedies and challenges in stride.)

@omohakhirome6954 Acting like 60 is old is propaganda. How many authors wrote their best works at that age, never mind Sophocles writing the Theban cycle in his late 80s? Sophocles was an "outlier." A 60 year old in college is not. Still, good to know what prejudices one will be confronted with. I guess you don't think I can read 200 pages in a day? I couldn't in high school. I can now.

@lynnees9828 Mine did, to the end. "Wishful thinking" was his phrase.

THANK YOU, you beat me to it!! And CONGRATS! People in their 80s who still work part-time are my heroes. It's so inspiring and exciting to see.

 @RobbeyT1 Thank you.

@placidengoma6730 Any career you start by age 40, you will do for the better part of three decades, and possibly longer on a part-time basis. That is plenty long enough for any career, lol.

 @thevcountdown9824 At 50, lots of Americans have to work 20 more years. It better be a desk job, huh?

@qualichor1222 Not always. A case study, even of a single person if carefully done, points in the direction of what is possible --- maybe broadly possible, for far more people than you think. See the work of Anders Ericsson.

@qualichor1222 But who cares about that? It's a party trick, not a life plan.

I could be in the last decade of my life and I never think about it. That would be a waste of my time. I do take the precautions because I want to live WELL. Once I know I did what I can, I turn the page.

Wonderful!!!

 @gwendolynbarry7415 You might like Judith Herman's book Trauma and Recovery. I love it, even more than van der Kolk's.
