Default Mid Life Crisis IDEALS

Today being my birthday everyone is wishing me well, asking me what am I going to do to celebrate and so on. Well it got me thinking, what do I need / want, and what do I want to do that I havn't done, looking at my bucket list. Then it dawned on me, I"m well into middle age unless average age raises to over 100 I'm there.

So this brings me to my question, I haven't had a "mid life crises" yet. Need some ideals what would you do if you could plan your mid life crisis. Done the fast cars, motorcycles, boats, guns , hunting/fishing , whiskey women, travled. Life has been fairly interesting. So throwout some ideals what you would do for a mid life crisis.

Go for the unbuttoned shirt and the gold chains with a porn star mustache, and definitely a toupee that doesn't fit.

Best gift you can give is dump more money into retirement.

I could say "do what I did", but you allready have a Jeep.
I bought my first JK last year, kinda of my mid life crisis vehicle.

Oh, I've got it ! Grow a pony tail. Those look great on old dudes. Especially the follicly challenged.

Well, I am mid 50's, and plan to keep right on doing the above list until the bucket is kicked.

Not bored of them yet. Specially them whiskey women, although my wife frowns on that old fascination.

If I have my way when I am 90, Ill be driving a 600 horsepower Wrangler with a Glock in the console headed for a hunting spot with a whiskey women camp cook, still getting yelled at for all of it by my loving wife.

Can't think of anything else I need...really.

But I am not very sophisticated. Just a country boy.

I stepped out of a perfectly good airplane and fell 13,000 ft. 5,000 ft of freefall (with drogue shoot for balance) and under canopy for 8,000 ft. The smile didn't leave my face for about a month.

I just sold all my gold chains from the 80's LMAO dumping more money in the 401 is a good ideal.
