Aging Thoughtfully: Conversations about Retirement, Romance, Wrinkles, and RegretWe all age differently, but we can learn from shared experiences and insights. The conversations, or paired essays, in Aging Thoughtfully combine a philosopher's approach with a lawyer economist's. Here are ideas about when to retire, how to refashion social security to help the elderly poor, how to learn from King Lear who did not retire successfully and whether to enjoy or criticize anti aging cosmetic procedures. Some of the concerns are practical:

We all age differently, but we can learn from shared experiences and insights. The conversations, or paired essays, in Aging Thoughtfully combine a philosopher's approach with a lawyer-economist's.

Here are ideas about when to retire, how to refashion social security to help the elderly poor, how to learn from King Lear -- who did not retire successfully -- and whether to enjoy or criticize anti-aging cosmetic procedures. Some of the concerns are practical: philanthropic decisions, relations with one's children and grandchildren, the purchase of annuities, and how to provide for care in old age. Other topics are cultural, ranging from the treatment of aging women in a Strauss opera and various popular films, to a consideration of Donald Trump's (and other men's) marriages to much younger women.

These engaging, thoughtful, and often humorous exchanges show how stimulating discussions about our inevitable aging can be, and offer valuable insight into how we all might age more thoughtfully, and with zest and friendship.

New wallet
Everything is very nice, but. Only carries about 60 % of what I carry with my old wallet. I also know that wallets need breaking in, but the slots were so tight it took dexterity and strength to slide in and remove a card. Why don't I send in for a refund? There is no criteria to get a refund that applies. It is beautiful leather, great stitching and overall a great product. Maybe registration it.

Carhartt Wallet
Size: One Size, Color: Black (Bifold)
This wallet is super nice, it’s a bit thinner than I thought it would be but it’s really nice. It comes in a nice metal box that you can use for other stuff. Its got a good amount of card slots and money fits in it well. Its a bifold, made of real genuine leather and it feels like it. Worth the money for it.
