Exactly. I hit 40 a few years back, and I’m statistically likely to live at least that long again. A lot happened in 40 years, and I was not in control of my life for just shy of half of that.

The next 40 is going to be interesting.

The next 20-25 will be interesting for you - after that you will just be telling people to get off your lawn, and making doctors appointments. ;>)

There is that risk, for sure. That said, i had to tell a kid (with his 4 wheeler) to get off my lawn just yesterday.
The next 40 will feel like about 10 years, maybe less, from the perception of your 20 year old self.
