Description
People from all walks of life report being their unhappiest around 46 years old, on average. The good news is, many people’s happiness trends upward after that, with those in their 60s, 70s and 80s often enjoying life more fully than ever. Curious to hear how my Gen X peers are faring in the messy middle, I’ll be talking to people who’ve made it through the low point, are in it now, or who are just now experiencing it.
