I happened to see a funny post on LinkedIn, where a user said he was tired of celebrating the "40 under 40" and he wanted to see stories on people getting after 60 getting a Ph D or becoming a lawyer.
He's right because what I have found that happens a lot lately. After turning 50 I even notice it more and it seems that people under 40 expect you to be "in the coffin." It's crazy and I just had to discuss it.
