Hi Steve – you’re not the first person we’ve had say this to us. It’s good to know that it keeps getting better!

hey, 50, nothing! Wait till you hit 60! Then it really gets good. you choose more carefully what you’re going to do and what you’re not going to do. you have enogh money not to have to go to work, but go anyway, simply because it’s great fun, and you know that if the boss pisses you off, you can just leave because you don’t really need the money. Also, you pick your foreign trips with more care and attention, because you know you’ve got less time left to do them. You go to places you really want to go to, rather than places that other people want you to go to. You’re wife is nicer to you because she understands you better and you understand her better too. All in all, everything’s better!

Yeah, Sam. From someone who knew you in the 90s, I love the honesty and perspective of this piece. You should check out what Jane Evans has to say on the uninvisibility project
