What am I gonna do when I grow up....
I'm in my 60's, and in better health than most of my acquaintences this age.. if they're still alive. My ambitions don't exceed my abilities... just don't ride a 10 speed at 20+ mph if you're drinking. Most the people I hang out with are under 40 or 30. I'm probably their friend because I have a car, license and on occasion, money.

Yay! You're going to have so much fun blogging!
Girl.... been there too, in Tucson after I retired from marriage in '84... 3 times. I also retired from having money...at least cash they wanted.
..then in tucson I was stalked by ladies ("") who'd never had an orgasm. That's after they kidnapped me to their place and I had been ???? Mind you now I could still count on my fingers where I've been...
Half these gal's were millionaires or to be so...with there factual inheritance. Even the 50 year olds lived there (parents nearby .. supposedly 1 foot in the grave)
Moral, money can't buy me... and I can live very well ... after my childhood, teen years, military (9 Yrs) Viet Nam ....etc...
this response is gonna bug you... since I'm leaping.
But...that dude was a freak... and I have met many desirable ladies, and worthwhile companions... but each of them had a quirk I couldn't handle or justify... money is not worth personal pride.
I've already found out that I've outlived a bunch of them... which is scary... if they only had heard my desires to make the best for them... and they were all younger by a point or two.
...hell hath fury, like old willie being ingnored.
...can't yet say all the things I've done since '84.. but I have done nearly everything I didn't do between the ages of 14 and 44...
...can't tell my kids... bad example.. but then they are 37, 39 and 42... self sufficient and I guess as a Dad I didn't do bad. They won't need my inherantance....
...
MY plan ... as a single parent was to raise them to a style to which someone else had to treat them to which they were accustomed to.
now they support their families..
2 daughters 1 son specifically...the others were step..but they are doing great also...
When you gonna post something new?? Your COMMENT could be a blog entry in itself! Get to work!
You failed to mentioned that most of your young "friends" have so many issues with drugs, alcohol, and mental illness, that they are not really capable of fulfilling their end of a friendship.
"Leach" would be a more accurate term than "friend"...
Screw those people, there are people out there that really care about you and ARE NOT deadbeats. Cultivate more friendships like that and stay away from the losers....
Look who's talking... the carnie-girl! I've learned my lesson, and I hope you've learned yours!
...all my life, I've tried to be invisible... never wanted to be #1, would drather push someone else to achieve and success. I am a surviver.. and don't need $$$ to prove it
