Anons over 40, do you still have anything you look forward to in life...
Life ende at 30. Better kys now
Just turned 40.
Every day with my kid is a joy (I'm a single dad).
I make and eat wonderful food.
I have a good time playing games with friends.
And I am fortunate enough to really enjoy my job, which I'm very good at.
It could be a lot worse.
I assume ur a young hooligan. When you hit 40 u realise everything is bullshit, money becomes dumb, relationships suck, the vain game of ur 20's is silly, and u have a been there done that attitude , u don't see many 40's at clubs for eg cause they are lame.
People get less and less interesting, u see through the governments shit and u become more selfish and u focus on other shit, like comfort, nice booze, nice weed, good music and focus on fun things for old men like playing overwatch and trolling on the internet
Things become less and less serious and more silly, making shit and shit people do more funny. Oh and the thought of fucking a 20yo boy when ur a 40yo dude becomes deviant.
I take comfort that I don't have to go through all the shit in my 20s again
I look forward to seeing you post this same post every fucking day like the potato you are
at this age, you have to earn everything or nothing seems real whatsoever.
free stuff will all seem like traps and everything will seem too good to be true, because it is.
Naked 20 year olds are good and true things
Source?
You'll be still hung up on the cute fucks you had in your 20s
you realize that you were just waking up everyday until your last every day before this one too.
There was nothing to look forward to, user, just bullshit to keep your hopes up long enough for someone more powerful to extract value from your existence.
Quit ur job.
get your first one
> user who is still on an Otaku / anime / gaming website at 40 years old, I got a question.
Yes, listen to their advice. I'm sure it's good.
I did work, I'm 38yo and I just stopped and went on welfare, I gave up a car, red meat, more then a studio apartment sized living, Netflix, all travel...and... Never been happier.
Work is slavery
Turned 51 in April. Looking forward to helping my 5 yr old boy grow up. Looking forward to cashing out my >$1mil 401k (savings). Looking forward to skiing in the Austrian Alps again. Lots more stuff I've worked my ass off for.
I used too think a million dollars was a lot. Its nothing.
A million dollars in 2022 is like 400k in 1990. Inflation is bad.
damn, i like this type of grills.
40yo gamers are standard.
so you embrace owning nothing and being happy?
50 here. Yeah, life is pretty good actually. Shit gets easier as you get older & stop wasting time on unimportant stuff. Pay off your debts, work out occasionally & understand that all pussy is pretty much the same, and it'll be good for you too.
based testosterone loss is based.
eat zink, ur mind is gonna jump straight back into putting that dick in a 20 year olds ass crack.
Recently turned 59 and I'm basically just running the clock out.
51 here, my life is pretty cool, I have a good job, savings, no debt, no wife, good friends, free as a bird. But somehow I hope that this won't be the last page of my life and that some adventure is still ahead; I won't kill myself if it doesn't happen but it's cool to think that maybe the best is yet to come.
Because no matter how odl my body is, I'm still 30 in my mind.
66 year old here.... thank god for cocaine and viagra. Life is good, but it's better with a 22 year old on your lap.
Are you ugly?
Its over
Did you age well?
Get yourself a cute 18yo gf
56 here.
Been there,done that.
Now just basically waiting for deaths sweet release.
based single dad taking life in stride
Dude.. I am in my fucking PRIME at 40.
Just tripled my income at the start of the year, have three project cars and a commuter. A nice place, and still get to smash college aged girls because I'm not hideous and make bank. Fuck out of here with your nihilism.
Easily the saddest post on this thread.
It is happiness user. I too gave up on my car and a bunch of other stuff and quit my job. I sold a bunch of shit and pretty much have some money saved that should last me at least ten years. I don't plan on having kids or getting married so it's all disposable income for me. When that money runs out I will sell my home and wander the earth until I die. Don't want to be an old fart either.
>eat zink
>zink with k instead of c
German? That would explain a lot.
For a few months I've been taking zinc pills and my skin and hair have looked great, and I also noticed my loads are bigger. Went from fapping like once or twice a week to 2 or 3 times a day.
Listen to this user, user. He's right in everything.
Don't think you can expect anything when getting older and becoming 40 is pretty old, though not THAT old. Nevertheless ... it's becoming a work-sleep-worry-sleep cycle. You witness your parents becoming fragile and vulnerable and yourself being like you saw your parents in your puberty. It's frightening a bit because so many things can happen. Everyday. And you know you won't like it.
> Turn 44 in March
> 1st kid just finish high school
> 2nd kid has 2 more years
> Life is pretty stable
> Don't have to look after the kids as much
> Has time for hobbies - guns, video games, woodwork and 3d printing
> Waifu and I are looking forward to kids move out of the house so we can have more our time
This is my opinion - if you focus on the good, life feels good, when you only focus on the bad life seems bad, but there isn't life that's all good. Personally I can roll with the punch but my wife has a hard time not to dwell on the bad stuff so I have to remind her about the good stuff.
32 and hoping i get struck by lightning or nukes start fuckin flying.
>if you focus on the good, life feels good
sure, but if everyday there's the next oil spill waiting for you to slip and break another bone, It'll get not only bad, but you start questioning everything.
38. alone.
been waiting to die for over a decade.
have fun, die young.
don't bother saving your money, it becomes more worthless everyday
43y here
TBH life is what u make it. I do just fine for myself, but not what I'd consider rich. Probably retire early.
I still occasionally smash younger women, but if I pretend to care women my age are skeptical for a second them desperately do anything to try and hook me. The number of women who've have 'it's ok, i'm clean we don't need a condom' is fucking hilarious. It helps to not be a washed up divorced dad to evil minions that suck the life outta you.
Best choice I ever made was not having kidlets. Instead i've hooked up with three kids of people I went to HS with or knew in my younger years. One's mom found out and that was ... ugly but who cares really?
What do I have to look forward to? Early retirement. Travel the world. Smash with eager women who think they're smarter than me and then derail their agenda. When I retire i'll probably spend some time in low income countries teaching english to HS or college age students. I just wonder how many will need 'extra help'
ywnbaw
seethe and dilate your axe wound
I salute you. Good winds sailor
I still have plenty good years left in me at 40. I look 30, have taken decent care of my body with the exception of abusing my liver for a good 8 years. I'm looking forward to my toddlers finally getting a bit more self sufficient. I'm waking up next to my wife with her rocking body only complaint is her libido is in the toilet from the last five years of taking care of the kids.
I'm 63, the general plan was to live fast and die young but I think I've left it a bit late.
I'm gen-x, it was all over at around 36 or so. Nothing brings joy anymore.
This!
>have three project cars
Like that's a good thing.
Niiiice. I like your outlook. I'm 42 but luckily look way younger. What countris are you got in mind?
Envy
Opposite
This amon gets it.. Two actually run which is good
Get fit and rich and fuck young girls that want you to be their daddy
I live my life with some foresight about the future but I am not to worry about the woes, I figure I'll tackle them as they come up, I do plan stuff to soften the blow when it comes but I don't let the worrying slow down my life.
There were come scary moment, like when I was doing some tree work, it wasn't smart of me to be on a ladder with a chainsaw and when the branch fell it knock over the ladder and I fell. Luckily I remember from Judo, to "look at your belt" when you fall which tucked my head in so I wasn't hurt too bad, bruised thumb, leg and ego.
As I get older I have to know my limits and one thing I do miss about being young is eye sights, I can't see very well in low light now, I carry a flash light with me every where so I can see thing.
I'm sure being single and kids would suck, but being 47, watching my kids grow up is what I live for.
This except I'm constantly trying to get young chicks to fuck me. It's not as hard as you would think when they are poor
Manila for sure along with various asian countries.
Besides that, eastern europe if the war winds down is a goldmine. Especially given the poverty that usually follows a war.
I'm considering some middle east or african places but...meh niggers.
seconded, what is the source?
You're missing out not having kids.... but you honestly, sound like you would be a shitty father anyways.
Im glad I had the best of both worlds...
Been with tonnes of young girls in various kinds of relationships up until my early 30s. Lots of drugs, experiences, and high risk behaviors...which all lead my to my current life style.
I have 3 kids now from ages 11 to 4. Beautiful successful girlfriend of 10 years that pulls in over 200K a year. I took the leap and started my service business 2 years ago and been seeing it grow ever since.
Yeah my kids are alot of work, but they add a certain richness into my life.
It used to be all about me me me,..... but now I get to experience the other side of life with people I love.
Glad I had those experiences when I was younger.... but also glad Im still evolving and growing as a person.. some of my friends from high school are taking the road of least resistance ad are pretty much the same as they were 25 years ago. Might be great for them, but Id be pretty sad if i wasn't challenged and growing still.
Im currently 39.
Most of us are working a regular job. So it's not just waking up and staring at the ceiling because retirement doesn't start until you're 65
Well my dick doesn’t really work like it used to, and I’m not horny like I used to be. I can go weeks without cumming. So I don’t waste energy or money on getting laid like I did before. These days I just like to work, stay active so I stay in shape and limber, and then I just like to chill with some wine. Life is pretty easy now. I don’t have any kids so I have zero stress. And I’m healthy. That’s the biggest thing now, just making sure I have my health, and that im on track for retirement
I'm not missing out on kids. Like zero percent missing. I also know i'd be a shitty parent - bluntly, i'm too selfish.
I'm glad you enjoy living thru ur kids and kudos...but it's not for me.
I'll enjoy my growth as it is, hobbies, women, whatever. I'm plenty OK not worrying about what every crazy my kid might do somewhere down the line to ruin my life.
Diezer porn star has smelly feet :)
>I’m too selfish
Me too mate. I know I’d resent the hell out of the little buggers. I like my life being about me. It’s weird to me that some people need others to make feel happy. Makes no sense
Retarded take. I have more free time and lift heavier weights than I did when I was 18. Read books, do hobbies, go to work, othing changes unless you let yourself go.
I make no money. Still fucking a 21 yr old. What job? I wanna switch career paths.
I'm 35, single dad. My job isn't perfect but at least I work in an office/laboratory environment where I'm not flipping burgers. I've been dreading 40 but your post gives me a little hope. Now if I could only get laid... Not that I couldn't if I lowered my standards but that seems to be the problem. Most decent older women are either taken or just not around. I need to get out more, but that hard to do when your son is 7. Idk. Any tips on that, bro?
