So once you retire you're basically useless to humanity.
No on wants to fuck you
If you have money, people are just waiting for you to die so they can enjoy inheritance
What do old people exist for beyond 60 apart from just fucking around in dollar shops, pruning flowers in their garden and waiting for their grand kids to pop over once a month
Look at Vince B, at 76 he does nothing but take creepy pictures of Brazilian students, no one wants to fuck him or even talk to him, not even board members want to engage with him via a faceless contactless internet forum. He creeps everyone around him, has zero productivity in this world cos he's old. He is merely a reminder of a person that once existed in the 70s that won shows and hung out with Arnold.
So to me life is about living, and this society the way it works is only adequate for someone healthy, young and strong, if you don't fit this criteria you are pushed to the sidelines to merely exist.

Basile's life is much worse than the average old person! :D
-
Plenty of reasons (good food, wine, exercise, hobbies) but folks in their 70's shouldn't be arguing with Getbiggers on a muscle board.
If you can stay in shape, stay on TRT, have fun, more power to you.
This guy is 80 (ish), good for him.

Yes, after working all your life you get to relax and do fuck all and enjoy what you’ve worked for, just hope you don’t die before having time to enjoy retirement or crack up from the bordem of not working.

How can you enjoy anything, your dick has shrunk, your energy levels are low, you look like a shrivelled up prune with a pulse, your wife is unfuckable.
What is it you're going to enjoy?

LOL. Except those people got "renewed" in "Carrousel" when they hit the ripe old age of 30.

Priorities and mentality changes, what was considered important or fun in my 20's is not anymore.

Very interesting question, which, because we are set on the same, aging course, demands some reflection.
Of course, here we can recall our Tennyson, "Come my friends..." (though this "heroic heart" met his shipwreck in Dante's portrait).
But the notion of purpose (telos), of there being "any point" is key. The point(s) can be framed personally (subjective) and socially (collective). Subjective purposes are fluid and changing (final purposes, at least in the Aristotelian sense, are altogether different). Still, the self at time t and the self at time t+(x) are two different selves but, assuming they have in common the mental competency to set their own ends, as Griffith writes, one's raison d'etre can change. Collectively, experienced and wise persons contribute to different "points."
Sure, behind the white towel of decrepitude hangs nothing but a shrunken sack of suck; but whoever said that life promises you a schmoe's garden?

Solid and good looking physiques. Who's the guy on the right?
-
Well of course there is no real point. No one feels good as they get older. Sure you can feel "good" for your age, but you are not going to feel as good at 50 than you do at 20. Posting pics of guys in their 70's with abs means shit. We all get old or die young. Deal with it or kill your self. I say this with as much love as possible. :D

not in physique culture or womanizing
in other fields getting older and wiser is a benefit.

Disagree.
How you feel relative to other ages is irrelevant. It's how you feel in the present, regardless.
At 50, you can still eat well, train, fuck, play golf, vacation and do a myriad of shit and other opportunities that might not have presented themselves at age 20. I know guys who are in their 50s and still play competitive baseball.
Plus, priorities and tastes change anyway, so what you thought you liked at 20 may not even matter.

::) Oh the power of a positive mind. Your mind changes because your body does or you would still be out there doing the same things you did at 20. You are right about one thing, how you feel to other ages as you get older is irrelevant. Not a damn thing you can do about it so why worry.

Not sure I get the eye roll but ok.
But explain to me what I can't do now in my 40s that I could do when I was 20?
In the past year I've deadlifted 400, rucked 27 miles with 47 pounds with zero pain the next day, can run a sub 40 min 5 miler in my sleep, do 50-60 push ups, hit a drive 300 yards on occasion, etc.....
I probably could bench more at age 20 so I guess I should feel bad about that......

There are far better examples to use than Basile as to why this argument fails

The eye roll really wasn't so much directed solely at you. There's nothing wrong at all taking a positive outlook to getting older. I just think some people are in denial. How many ads do you see of these old fucks pretending that they can still get young chicks just because they have abs? As if younger girls even give a shit about your abs. Look at a lot of the retired pros. I mean the ones who are still alive. They can barley walk their bodies are so torn up. Even you average person no matter how good they feel at 60 has their share of problems. If I could have a billion dollars or be 20 again I'd pick 20 because as of today no amount of money can turn back time.

Sure but not when you were in school and your bench press or abs won't get you in today. ;D

Is that being 20 knowing what you know now, or going back to 20 and being as dumb and self-absorbed as I was back then? If it's option B), I'll take the billion dollars, thank you.

define "old." (with a #)

I've been around the lifting for many decades. I have seen the same pattern. Guys start juicing in their 20's. Soon their whole life revolves around drug cycles. They are mini celebrities with their muscles everywhere they go. While every one around their age is learning a trade and pursuing a career they are revolving their life around doing enough menial jobs to afford their syringes, vials and pills. After a couple of decades of using and meaningless jobs they quit due to health, finances, criminal arrest or depression. Soon they look like they never did a push up in their life. They walk around with a crumbled up picture in their wallet to show everyone their glory days while they can't hide how out of shape they are in baggy clothes.
You ask if there is a point to being old. Living well is the best point. Living in a really nice house with visiting loving adult kids and seeing their kids growing up is one of the best gifts in life to live for. Now being retired within reason gives you the freedom to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Sitting at home listening to all the cars rev up going to work in the morning while you're in bed is a great feeling. Heading to the gym in the AM is another gift. Eventually we all die. It's a blessing if you have your health right up to the end but for many we die sick and weak. No exceptions. It would be nice at that time that you could look back at a life well lived. Then again we have other viewpoints. Live huge. Die Huge. Make your poll bearers sweat carrying your coffin.

Damn I need to try the pic in wallet trick. ;D Agreed though, whether we accept it or not it's inevitable so I personally appreciate everyday I'm here.

I hear you, but I think I actually view it from a different lens. I don't see it as a widespread thing like you're talking about, in fact, the opposite. Too many people blame the way they feel on age when they could improve their overall well being by not being lazy with eating, training, exercise, etc....
I can't use retired pros and such as a baseline for anything because they're a niche group that don't really represent regular people. I don't see the ads because I don't read that stuff.
As for the last sentence, my initial though was to absolutely agree. But now that I think about it, it's not a slam dunk, because with the billion I could set up my family for generations, and help a ton of people I know. Maybe if you said 20 million or something.....

Oh I agree about taking care of oneself. I have little tolerance for people who eat like shit and then as me how they can feel better. I see so many of my friends who are in horrible health because of how they eat but hey they live in a nice big fancy home and drive a 50K car. The best gift you can give anyone is the knowledge of how to stay as healthy as possible while you age. The sad part is even if you show them, will they act upon it? In my experience almost never.

Spoken like an immature person who knows nothing about being 60+ years old.

If you can stay in shape, stay on TRT, have fun, more power to you.
You made some positive remarks here and a negative one. At 73 years of age, I'll do as I please with my time. I've earned the right to engage in nonsense, like conversing or arguing with Getbiggers. Not sure it is accurate to call Getbig a muscle board though. Many of the posts here have little or nothing to do with muscle building.

You are correct.
It's because the only thing that can motivate to do this shit day in and day out is the person themselves.
It's the reason I still do all these events. If I have a goruck or spartan, it the difference between me getting in the training at 8 pm and grabbing a bourbon. Need that thing to push me.

40 is the old 30
50 is the old 40 - bang milfs
60 is the old 50 - bang milfs
70 is the old 60 - bang gilfs
no reason to not be not blowing loads into hot GILFS at age 70

As far as the money thing. I too would wonder if taking it would be a good thing for your family and the generations ahead, but it could also be a curse. I say fuckem and take the turning back of time. ;D
-
I agree that old people are essentially useless and it's right that we despise them.
However, as a man if you make smart decisions in your life and end up with a lot of money, you can leverage that so that attractive women will still fuck you in your old age.
With women it's a little different. Old women should just kill themselves. ;D

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA I had a smile on my face even before I got done reading that. It would be so great to be 20 again. ;) Hey I make friends quick and just think I can come back here and start posting as Disgusted Jr.
-
I think the real dream would be to go back to being high school age like 15 or so, but still knowing everything you know as an adult.
That kind of power would seriously corrupt a person. So much win.

You're a fucker because now I'm putting thought into this. ;D
Instantly being 20 again, but retaining my knowledge to date, I could make a decent chunk of $$ by the time I got back to my age.
Plus having that training knowledge would help too. Instead of lifting heavy every single fucking time at that age, I'd play the long game.....

You are right about having a positive attitude, regardless of one's age. If I could buy back time and be 20 again, I might do it. I fucked up a lot when I was younger. Although eventually my life turned out well. It would be interesting to see if we were given a second chance at youth we'd do things differently.
My back went out yesterday when I was getting in the car - turned the wrong way or something. It's the shits 'cause I was going to work quads. If it spasmed while doing squats, that could be disastrous.
I never aspired to be a pro, which is probably a good thing because I can walk just fine and nothing is torn up. I'll leave the "young chicks" for the young guys. Even most older women don't give a fuck about a fellow's abs. But, a lot of guys, regardless of their age, think women do.
-

If you knew what you know now, you really wouldn't be twenty years old. You'd be an old guy in a younger body. I guess that wouldn't be too bad. ;D

Hey glad I could help. ;D On a side note I stopped being stupid in the gym at around 32. I can still go in and do anything as long as I pretend to be Serge Nubret. As far as knowledge the "smarter" I get I realize how dumb I really am.

define "old." (with a #)
That's the thing, old isn't defined by a number; it is defined by your state of mind and how you feel physically. Some young people are already old. Some old people remain young.

Yeah man it kinda is. You can pretend all you want at 70 that you are 40 but you're not. State of mind means fuck all really. I've seen so many fucking people I know die of cancer. All but one had a positive out look. They all decided to "fight" cancer and they all lost. My Aunt was one of the meanest and bitter people I knew and she lived to be 93. She drank a 6 pack of Coke daily was slightly over weight had all her teeth when she died and cut her own grass till she was in her mid 70's. Never exercised a day in her life but she wasn't lazy either.

Many here seem to be giving up on themselves. Sad.

Well we have the Nobel Price ceremony right now...most of the price takers are 60+ there is more in life to do than lift and fuck young pussy! Trump is 73 Putin is 65...
-
not gonna read all posts but from what i understand disgusted and others pretty much are apes, you dont get to fuck as much as you get older so life is pointless.
how about we make this thread about HUMAN BEINGS and not apes? thanks.

don't look now but old people are running [ruining] the world.

how do you propose to avoid getting old ?
stem cells injections, lie about your age ;D
age gracefully is the goal here

how do you propose to avoid getting old ?
fridge could help, imagine frizzing basil & de-frosting him in 50 years ;D

how do you propose to avoid getting old ?
The Bible science behind it is preserving the telomeres found on our chromosomes. The natural, repeated shortening of them is the true biological countdown to our demise. Once it's figured out, we can live without ageing indefinitely. Some organisms don't age, and could live indefinitely under the ideal conditions, so it's not a fantasy.

Somebody's gotta yell at those kids on the lawn..........

point is you at the old age are a point of reference for the next generation. there is so much you can learn from somebody that has been on this planet for 60 or more years. transfer of knowledge is the point you dumb girl...
-
Yes, one day you get to tell people that one time you read on some bodybuilding forum that someone asked "Is there any point to being old?", yet this same person hasn't decided to play in traffic yet. I guess, they are ok with growing old.

Once it's figured out, we can live without ageing indefinitely. Some organisms don't age, and could live indefinitely under the ideal conditions, so it's not a fantasy.
Yeah, some micro organism in Tasmanian swamps don't age ..........(TV doco, 3-4 months ago)

Any point? Sure. You get to hang out with gnarly chicks and powerlifting dudes.

You are already used to that.
Thanks.

fridge could help, imagine frizzing basil & de-frosting him in 50 years ;D

what a stupid post. life is good after 60. no bills, money in my pocket, can do whatever I want, kids are grown and in good careers. grandkids are the best, play with them and then they go home.
sex is still good, on TRT, happy all the time. not working for the man anymore.
terrible post douchbag ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

So once you retire you're basically useless to humanity.
No on wants to fuck you
If you have money, people are just waiting for you to die so they can enjoy inheritance
What do old people exist for beyond 60 apart from just fucking around in dollar shops, pruning flowers in their garden and waiting for their grand kids to pop over once a month
Look at Vince B, at 76 he does nothing but take creepy pictures of Brazilian students, no one wants to fuck him or even talk to him, not even board members want to engage with him via a faceless contactless internet forum. He creeps everyone around him, has zero productivity in this world cos he's old. He is merely a reminder of a person that once existed in the 70s that won shows and hung out with Arnold.
So to me life is about living, and this society the way it works is only adequate for someone healthy, young and strong, if you don't fit this criteria you are pushed to the sidelines to merely exist.

LOL. Can't get my age right. You don't know much about me if you can post this crap. We all get older then many will reach old age.
Imagine my delight that I can still build my arms and get stronger. Fountain of youth.

Retired at 53. I'm 55. If I had the chance to go back to any age and repeat it, I would pass. I have zero bills. I live on a lake in a two story lakehouse, a boat and jetski. I can travel where I want when I want. I hit the gym 6 days a week. My wife is 8 years younger than me and smoking hot. I drive a 2014 Mustang, she drives a 2014 BMW X5 paid for.. I read this thread and I have to laugh...

.....define "old"

.....define "old"
Good point

Disagree.
How you feel relative to other ages is irrelevant. It's how you feel in the present, regardless.
At 50, you can still eat well, train, fuck, play golf, vacation and do a myriad of shit and other opportunities that might not have presented themselves at age 20. I know guys who are in their 50s and still play competitive baseball.
Plus, priorities and tastes change anyway, so what you thought you liked at 20 may not even matter.
True
I wouldn't change where I am at now, with any age.. but ask me in 10 years, I may have a different answer

We're both about the same age (55) I'm happy with where I'm at physically and financially. The only thing I own on are my houses.

owe on or own?
I've been fortunate. I played the market for a couple years with my Deferred comp and made great returns.That allowed me to buy 5 years more service credit and have some fun money if I need it. My retirement is enough that I can live comfortably, my investments, (mostly luck) are allowing me to buy the toys and do the traveling I put off for most of my career. I certainly can't complain. I have often thought, wouldn't it be nice to go back to when I was 25 but damn.. repeating the crap I had to deal with to get to this point.. I think I'm good. I was fortunate to retire at 53 in good health. Life is too short to spend it into your 70's chasing the dollar
-
I have a friend, he's 75. Retired from Coke at 53 with millions from stock options. Started out as a salesman fresh out of the marines with not a penny to his name. He wouldn't trade his life right now with any 30 year old trying to make ends meet. It's all how you look at it.

Lots of 50 year old jumping on here saying how good life is.
Don't get me wrong. At 50 you still look ok and have a respectable energy about you. But when you get old, I am talking 65 and over, you're an irrelevant member of society. You'll think about your youth and see how the world now caters for the young, everyone is just waiting for you to die off now...go enjoy your cup of tea at home as the world goes by.

females got it worse than fellas
basically they really start to go downhill after 23 and after 35 or so they are finished :'(
of course there are a few exceptions, but not many

Have to agree with rim stinger on this one, trying my best to groom a management team so I can step out of my business in 4 years at 50, hope to get a good ten years doing things with good health before taking the next 5 on the slide, have no intention of hanging around past 65 if the qualities gone, would rather just handover what i got to the kids. My view will not change I've walked through enough war cemeteries to appreciate being more fortunate than those who didn't make it. I will take quality over quantity anytime unless its too short a quantity.
-
Is there any point to being old?really is this a question?thats like saying is there any point in being a man or white etc... can’t change it if you don’t get killed or get sick and die you will get old.So no needbdiscussing it.Its inevitable.

Exactly. Many are missing the point.
Look at Clooney, over the past few years you can see that deathly look taking hold. Even worse, Kirk Douglas, I don't want to be that old when just sitting idle is a struggle, looks like holding your head up and keeping your eyes open is a fuckign effort.
Kirk Douglas, sure he's still alive, but he isn't a person anymore. Once an alpha male a lion, now what? what is he?

Do you plan on committing suicide on your 65th birthday? If you are in good health at 65 suicide may not be a good option. As best I know, life insurance companies don't pay out in cases of suicide. Assisted suicide is possible, depending on your state's laws. Unfortunately, death with dignity is only available to people who are terminally ill.

Kirk Douglas celebrated his 100th birthday last December with his family and friends in attendance and the Beverly Hills Hotel. Douglas was described by his guests as being still in good shape, able to walk with confidence into the Sunset Room for the celebration

Irrelevant to whom? A bunch of fans who don't give a shit about you anymore, and vice versa? Old folks are still relevant to the people important to them. My dad just passed away last month at age 83 and I assure you he was very relevant to his family, friends and loved ones, to the very end.
The world does cater to the young. They're the ones all the TV commercials are aimed at. Even though it's us older folks who have the money to spend, lol. We're just not stupid enough to get sucked in by advertising for the latest trendy stuff.

No Prime im a 100 mile an hour guy, and I wont change I doubt I will get much further than 65 with my level of stress and family history, Of course I will take more if its quality and on offer to me,and will also leave no stone unturned trying to extend both the quantity and quality with the gifts on offer with modern medicine and technology, so no suicide will be required, its not part of my DNA, I will probably push it to far at some point and have to pay the piper. Lets just hope its later rather than sooner.

He will be 101 in 2 months. He was born in December 9, 1916. His wife should never have done plastic surgery. Looks like the joker now - an old one. He probably also had surgery.

So he was 34 then. Amazing to think he is still around 67 years later. Shows you how fragile life is. The Earth is billions of years old and humans and other animals barely make it to 100. Some turtles live over 200 years and a few plants survive for a few thousand years - but that's still nothing in the grand scheme of things. Of course everything in the Universe has an expiration date, including our own Sun and all other stars in the Universe. That's how it has all been designed in a cycle of life and death.

I'm having a blast. The hardest part of my life at the moment is trying to decide where to travel next. Because of our 2 11 year old Yorkies, it's not always easy. I love em, but damn.. they can be more hindering than children when you're wanting to travel and the wife thinks they are children. At 55 my medical issues are minor. Lower back pain if standing too long, that's about it. I have testosterone pellets every 3. 5 months that keep me around 900 and a years supply of Cialis. LIfe is good. BUT... 20 or 30 years from now, if I'm fortunate enough to dodge cancer and buses, if my quality of life isn't where I want to be, and I am a burden to others, I have no problem ending it. No one gets out alive.. getting out on your own terms.. that's the best we can hope for.
-
Have to smile at the question about whether there is any point to being old. Well, you all won't have that long to wait. Time flies as they say. Of course we don't see ourselves as getting old. If there were no mirrors or cameras we would hardly know!
As Zorba the Greek said, "I have enough fight in me to, to, devour the world....so, I fight!" We have the internet and it opens the doors to many wonderful things/people, ideas, etc. I feel sorry for those who don't know what to do. Not that anyone wins.
-
Well of course there is no real point. No one feels good as they get older. Sure you can feel "good" for your age, but you are not going to feel as good at 50 than you do at 20. Posting pics of guys in their 70's with abs means shit. We all get old or die young. Deal with it or kill your self. I say this with as much love as possible. :D
Bullshit.
I feel better.
