The Significance of the Number 40...

In life, when you turn 40...

• Mid-life crisis starts creeping in.
• You are considered "elderly" because you qualify for the Eldershield, a long-term care insurance plan.
• You are no longer the preferred candidate in job interviews.
• You would find it hard to get employed because for the same pay, the company could employ two or three younger persons
• You could see further because you have become far-sighted. You need reading glasses now!
• You begin to see belly popping out because there is not much fire in the belly now!
• You realise that good health cannot be taken for granted, so you become more health-conscious, you start exercising and watching your diets more strictly.
• You have been through the hardest part of life, and so you begin to take things easy.
• You start colouring some parts of your body that have lost their natural colour or tone.
