I got in a company that makes stages for big artists like metallica, lady gaga, U2 as a tig welder and there is crazy overtime all the time so ive been working 50-60hrs a week while being a full time student. It adds up fast when there are little bills.
Good on you! Yep, it's all about shaking the right hand when you are young, I believe.

54 yrs old, it was my retirement gift to myself that I saved my butt off to pay cash for so I could retire and have no car payments.

54...figured I would be in a small demographic group (currently at 3.74%) but was surprised to see twice as many in the group past 55. Interesting there is also twice as many in the group before as well.

I think the Z has a very broad age appeal. The 240Z came out in 1970 so anyone born early/mid 50's who dreamed about getting a Z while they're in high school or college may think about finally getting a Z they loved when they were teenagers. I'm 50 and had a '83 280ZX and a '93 300ZX before I got my 40th Anniversary 370Z. It reminded me of the first generation Z's so I got it for sentimental reasons.

Going to be 56 in March. Widowed empty nester. This Z is mid-life crisis number 370. When my wife pasted away. Everybody asked me when am I going to get a sports car. I said it's going to be awhile. While it was 7 months to the day. LOL Growing up, had a couple of 426 Hemi's, a 440 6 Six Pack, couple of Trans Ams (455 SD + 6.6) and a bunch of motorcycles. Retirement is 6 years or less. Depends on how well I do in the stock market.

Glad you're dealing well with your loss, though.

Thank you. It was tough. You find out how short life can be at times. Here today, then gone in a few minutes. With that lesson, I want to make the most of what time I have left. My daughter is a big help. She tries to keep me from going overboard on some of the things I do. My bucket list. LOL She says it tough trying to raise a single parent. LOL

Turned 74 last November. On warm summer days it's a toss up whether to drive the 370Z or jump on the 09 Harley Dyna Low Rider for a day in the wind.
