Don, of course 50+ ers are necessary in the world.

Industry and sometimes commerce require their experience and know-how  
and network connections.

And, when it becomes 60+, then they are still needed for the above,  
plus the fact that they are no longer seen as c o m p e t i t i o n  
in the market-place; minding the grandchildren, the dog(s), helping- 
out with the finances (if still possible) ................... BUT

They no longer participate directly in family life, from  
70 ............... except in some Latin and non-western  
countries ................. and that is not only sad, but also a  
symptom of to-day's world.

So, enjoy the years at 50+!

B.
