There's a print ad for the new VW Passat that nails this on the head! It
states that suddenly you're 40, you stuck with the house and kids etc.
And, how when we get into this situation we stop having fun for
ourselves. The fun stuff is left for the younger folk to enjoy. It
really rang true. Except for the part about running out and buying a new
VW to relieve the situation. Sorry, I still got my TR6 to prove I'M THE
BIGGEST KID on the block!
