The fun starts now….
For many, the age of 50 may be the beginning of the end, but a group of scientists claim the good life begins only when people reach their fifties.
Despite increased risk of death and disease, it seemed that people in their fifties worry less, ignore the negatives and accentuate the positives, according to scientists at Stony Brook University, New York.
The researchers said that when people reach the landmark age, their stress, anger and worry fade gradually and feelings of happiness start to surge.
Dr Arthur Stone, one of the authors of the study, said their findings were “striking”.
“You would think as chronic illness threatens life would get worse but that is not the case because people don’t focus on the threats,” he said. “They focus on the good things in life like family and friends.”
