OLDER IS BETTER

Submitted by ub on

Do you agree with me that sometimes folks falsely feel like there's an age limit when it comes to work, fame, ideas, or good fortune?

My younger daughter and my older online partner and good pal are both celebrating birthdays. I say they never get older, they're getting better. As long as it’s not another day older and deeper in debt.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDiq6rSrBo4

Take Uncle Sam, who is much older, and deeper in debt, yet still has some great ideas under his tall hat and inside in his head.

Have you noticed that the older some people get, the more often they're pushed aside in favor of younger models? Despite this, though, plenty of stars have continued to find success long after reaching a certain age.

There are quite a few celebrities in their 80s and beyond who still have an amazing career going for them. They prove that when you're passionate about something, you don't need to step aside. You continue showing everyone why your name matters.

Take Warren Beaty for example, who was in his late eighties Now 86, Beatty has been nominated for an incredible 14 Academy Awards, but only four of those were for Best Actor. Over the years, he's also been up for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay, making him one of the most well-rounded talents in the industry. He shows no sign of stopping yet, either. I met Warren when he hired me to play a small part in BULWORTH. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eQMv2e_wx-A&pp=ygUJQnVsbHdvcnRo

Then there is a queen quitting. Denmark's Queen Margrethe II announces surprise abdication on live TV https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/denmarks-queen-margrethe-ii-abdica…

Finally, did you know Mickey "Steamboat Willie" has sailed into the public domain after many years with Disney? The world's most recognizable character, MICKEY MOUSE will enter the Public Domain! But does this mean that Disney will lose Mickey Mouse forever? Can ANYONE use Mickey in anything they want to create?  https://mail.google.com/mail/u/3/#inbox/FMfcgzGwJSJDRPzNFKJGMbTZjzHqfMp…

The big takeaway is don’t let age slow you down. As long as the desire is there and it feels good… Let it ride.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybV5VPWO_NY&list=PLAUV9jJWRPOd3yxpIywZe…

Money and fame may be overrated but our health is not. Look at POTUS for instance. He has accomplished more for We The People with a do-nothing Congress than the slightly younger… Homophobic, racist, misogynistic, anti-woman’s rights, sexist, anti-scientific, xenophobic, religiously bigoted, sycophant but much heavier fat cat who lied and cheated all his life and when he had the opportunity to help others, he decided to divide and make himself and his rich allies wealthier.
