Disturbingly accurate. I ain't out doing midlife crisis shit because I suddenly stared into the abyss at my own mortality. It's because I can afford everything I've always wanted to do.

I have been saving up for a motorcycle since I was 20. Now I'm approaching 40 and there's finally some money in that account

Scuse but I bought a bike in my mid 20s for a few grand wtf kinda bike you holding out for? Like 2300 all in. It wasn't a beauty, it wasn't in pristine condition but it got me in and I learned a lot. You have to be realistic with expectations.

There are always more important things or more immediate concerns. I had my first kid at 23. Plus 2300 is not something I have ever had as spare money.
