I can identify, since we were born the the same year. Enjoy it! Over the hill are senior discounts and AARP junk mail! And soon you'll be able to sue just like a senior!

Good News! My husband was let go from Dell Computer after 16 yrs because "he couldn't take us to the next level." Translated to he made too much money and they hired a young Indian in his place that could barely speak English. My husband was 57 yrs old and had never even had a bad report. You could begin to see them start to build their case 6 months before when suddenly he could do nothing right. To the day they walked him out the door other departments at dell wanted to hire him. They even made him sign a paper that he could never work for Dell again or any of it's company's. He had to sign that he would never sue them and they would give him his two months severance package. We had to start paying $800.00 a month for our insurance and he had people calling 20 times a day for interviews but as soon as they found out his age they didn't call again. All the people let go at Dell around the same time were all over 50. Believe me your time will come and it is not pretty and believe me it is age discrimination.
