Middle Aged Hits at 47

Wait, don’t get mad at us, we’re not the ones saying it.

This comes from a new survey where 2,000 people we asked what age do we officially take on the label “middle aged.”

The average answer was 47!

The survey also asked people to point out signs that you might be middle aged, and here are the Top 10 answers:

  1. You start noticing a lot of your co-workers are young enough to be your kids.
  2. You have a harder time tolerating other people’s nonsense.
  3. You notice wrinkles and grey hairs, but not just on your face and head.
  4. You thought you’d never need glasses, but now you do.
  5. You realize you’re older than most of the actors and musicians you like.
  6. Going on a cruise suddenly sounds like a lot of fun.
  7. You’ve started to really enjoy spending money on boring home-improvement projects, like putting in a new fence or new flooring.
  8. You’ve accepted the fact that you’ll never fit into your old clothes again.
  9. You suddenly love going to stores like Home Depot and Lowes.
  10. You’re more passionate about politics than ever before. 

There’s actually a full list of the Top 50 Answers you can find HERE.
