I guess for me, the stigma surrounding age has to do with fears of poor health.
My Mother became physically disabled at a young age, and I'm already having people tell me that with my age and health issues that the only way I'm ever going to get health insurance is to go on Social Security Disability, as the costs for health insurance for 48 year old men with asthma/emphysema are astronomical . . .
Great sentiment by Serafina. I've never understood the stigma surrounding age.
