How old are we?

Dear members,

We are VERY curious to know the ages of the members on our board. We'd greatly appreciate if you could check off your age in this anonymous poll. Feel free to add anything you'd like by replying as well.

Thanks so much!

Marko

Ahh, so you just turned 26, eh, C?

How come there was no "I don't want to know" option?

I used to do the Canadian/American cash conversion thing on my age - I could take 20% off if I gave my age in American. Now the exchange isn't so high so it's hardly worth it....
Oh yeah, 48

In the 3.91% group - sheesh! Well, is it better to be in the younger part of an older bracket or to be in the older part of a younger bracket? I'm 59. Maybe physically, I wouldn't mind being 36 again, but aside from that, I'm happy with where I'm at on the scale. Maturity-wise, I'm probably better than I've ever been as far as accepting myself and enjoying being "me". Emotionally, I'm still a basket case from losing my mom. Professionally, well, I'm finally able to be "boss" - of my unit, anyway. Financially, I've never been more stable. Mentally, I think my sense of humor is naughtier and I have much more fun. Why can't we start out this way instead of acquiring it later?

Humph...I can't believe I haven't seen this poll since my membership. Had I stumbled across it before now, I would have been in the younger age group that what was selected just now!

hhmmm If I had of answered when this was started, I would have been 4 years younger than I am today!

However, I did just turn 57 but that's ok, cus that means, I am just "that" much closer to retirement
