Fifty Plus (50+) - If We Started A 65+ Froum Would All The Folks 64 And Under Want To Post?

If we started a 65+ forum, would all the folks 64 and younger want to post in the 65+ forum?:D

No. :D

Nope - too far of a stretch for me - I mean, you are nearly old enough to be my father! :eek:

And I was going to wait until you were 60 to tell you!

I'd say that 50+ pretty well groups a like minded bunch of people as is.

And what does someone only 50 know about medicare?:)

I know that I support with my taxes... ;)

You might have a tough time getting some of us to admit to being that old:eek:

Oops, slight correct - I don't support you. I am sorry - I am hiding out in Costa Rica and THEY tax my income. You are on your own my friend.

Of course, cuz that would be the forum with the best buffet. :p

Would their be a SENIOR DISCOUNT to get a red star next to your name if you joined the 65+ Forum?

No and definitely no. I want to hang around with the Young Ones.

And what does someone only 50 know about medicare?:)
At least one <50 knows an awful lot about Medicare. Let me know if you have questions. :)

Also been through the PCa thing, the heart surgery thing.... *yaaaaawwwwn*

And I wouldn't mind hangin' out with the 70+'ers. That's who I'm more in tune with. Maybe I could be a mascot 'til I can prove that my mindset belongs with an earlier generation. :D

Calm down and take your pills, Dad.

Be kind to the young. They are the ones who pick out our nursing homes.

Of course, cuz that would be the forum with the best buffet. :p

But get there early. Dinner closes at 5:30 p.m.

I've reached 60 and decided to stop adding years, ask DG.

But get there early. Dinner closes at 5:30 p.m.
Yeah, and by 7:30 most of us have already shuffled off to our trundle beds.

And what does someone only 50 know about medicare?:)
Since you mentioned it. I turn 65 in Sept. and am getting swamped daily with adverts. and some serious stuff from my (now) primary insurance company, and govt. stuff wanting a decision. It's over my head. This kind of thinking just ain't my bag. I'm surprised I got this far in life with minimum screw-ups.

And in 10 years you'd need to start a 75+ forum. Where does it end?

Best scenario - never

Next best scenario - 95+

Absolutely not!
What could a 65 year old possibly have to say that could be of any interest? :p :p :p
I'll stick to the children in the 50+.
Were such........children.

Sure, when I need information on one of these:

you would be in an elite group. Elite meaning small - according to the age distribution poll less than 8% of the 50+ Forum, claim to be 65+.
More importantly, what % of threads would be OT medical questions?
Most importantly would you allow Freds & posers?

OK kiddies, back to the bikes with training wheels . . .

Heh. Don't thank VV, folks. I'm just along for the ride. ;)

And, what's wrong with "OT" medical questions? It's all related to being able to function on a bike. I have a lot of personal anecdotal experience to offer, and I'm sure others do, too. We don't like to think that our bodies are poopin' out on us, but it's a fact (I promise you all this). So we may as well make the most of a forum on which to post some of our health concerns. If not among one another, at first, then among whom? We shall all eventually take our issues to the docs, but it's nice to discuss them among friends here first, doncha think? <curious Vega look> Whether that be in a 50+ or two forums: 50+ and 65+. :rolleyes:

I say leave it "lumped" so that the younger can benefit from the experiences and wisdom of the older, and the "older" can benefit from the enthusiasm and "ignorance" of the younger. <shrug>

<slinkin' away, youthful ignorance drippin' from every pore>

I think there already is an over-65 forum...they call it "Recumbant," or something.

:)

I think I hate old people as much as I hate young people sometimes...
