Just a few reasons why it’s great to be fortysomething!
- Forty is the new 30, isn’t it?
- You can be a whiz in Word, but still remember how to write a letter using a pen and paper - and you can spell words properly.
- After years of saying ‘yes’ to please everyone, you have finally learned to look after yourself and say ‘no’ occasionally.
- You still have plenty to achieve in your life - tennis legend Martina Navratilova won two grand slam titles as a fortysomething!
- Some of the sexiest women on the planet are the same age as you are - Teri Hatcher, Nicolette Sheridan, Linda Evangelista, Elle MacPherson, Sarah-Jessica Parker, Heather Locklear, Halle Berry...
- You may only have 20 years or less of work left.
- If you have just hit 40, you are only half way through the expected life span for a woman in the western world.
- You’ve lived for over 40 years, so you’re interesting, damn it!
- You’re not too old to borrow your kids’ Nintendo Wii and beat the hell out of them at their own game.
