The men in my family haven't made it past 70-80, and I put a lot into retirement. I had planned to wait and do something like this later in life. When I turned 38 and I started to feel like "anything could happen", I decided that I needed to do something a little crazy.

What really clinched it for me was talking to a guy that was selling a Boxster and asking him why he was parting with it. He told me that he was 60, had recently had shoulder surgery, and that getting in and out of it was too uncomfortable. That was it. I knew that I needed to get one now.

So when my neighbor asked if it got it because of a midlife crisis I just laughed and said "Absolutely!"
