So is hitting 50 really that bad?
Hitting 50 really is not as scarey as people think and is only really the start of middle age with many people living in to their 90s.

That said, there are many out there that want to make fun out of any-body that is hitting a big milestone birthday like your 50th birthday and it does not take long to find jokers that will have you down as old and past it just because you can remember the mini skirt and the Beatles the first time round. Here are some common misconceptions about hitting the big 50.

When you sleep, people worry that you may be dead instead.
Your back goes out more than you do.
Your best friend is dating someone half their age… and yet aren’t breaking any laws.
When your idea of a night out is sitting on the patio.
When the idea of a night out makes you tired.
Getting “lucky” means you found your car in the car park not a woman at the bar.


Then again being 50 is not all bad as the points below show.

Along with getting some great 50th birthday presents and 50th birthday gifts, when you are 50:

In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first.
No one expects you to run into a burning building.
Friends call at 8.00pm and ask, "Did I wake you up?"
You have nothing left to learn the hard way.
You can live without sex although not without glasses.
You can have a party and it is so quiet the neighbors don't even realize.
Your eyes won't get much worse.
Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can't remember them either.

So dont worry about hitting 50, enjoy it. Go out there and do things that you have always wanted to do like driving a sports car or abseiling down the side of a building.

If you can't use your 50th birthday as an excuse to go out and do something different then what excuse can you use!!
