Midlife Chrisis.


Midlife crisis is a term coined in 1965 by Elliott Jaques and used in Western societies to describe a period of dramatic self-doubt that is felt by some individuals in the "middle years" or middle age of life, as a result of sensing the passing of their own youth and the imminence of their old age. Today a friend of mine went through just this. He sold his truck to pay off his debt and then bought a 2008 Ford Mustang GT with a V8 and 5Speed tranny. Was this a wise thing? Maybe, he went from a big unused truck to a slightly more economical car. Some believe that midlife crisis is not a real thing, but an excuse to get/or do something in ones life. So with that said, congrats on your midlife crisis!
