50 Year Dash by Bob Greene

A man who was turning 50 was asked whether he felt middle-aged. His response was rather amusing but relatable: “I don’t feel middle-aged, I feel like a teenager who’s been in a fight.” This witty and bold statement perfectly encapsulates the author, Bob Greene’s outlook on life as he enters his fifth decade. Greene’s latest book is a collection of insightful musings on various aspects of life – family, career, finances, relationships, mortality, friendships, regrets, cherished memories, interactions with doctors, competition, aspirations, moments of vulnerability, and the limitless possibilities that lie ahead.
