Seasoned Mongers

[Studly52]

Just curious…how many mongers are 60 years or older???

I, and my buddy monger are 69.

I too north of 60…….started many years ago during a terrible first marriage……….have a great marriage now but still addicted to experiencing something different once in awhile……….

I think this is one of the simplest reasons many of us go. This is my exact same situation.

I always smile when I see an old man driving a corvette. A friend of mine has one and I always tell him it is an old man car. I HARDY ever see a young man driving a corvette. He told me because the young men cannot afford a corvette. In my head, I am thinking the same exact thing holds true for AMPS.

When I read the title, I was thinking seasoned meant the number of experiences one has had in their life, not how old one was.

I am in the sixth decade of this hobby and have been told by providers that most of their customers are older.

Disclaimer, I never interviewed a Siagon provider and there is a high probability I never will.

Lol we "young" guys don't get corvettes. It truly is an old man care cause we don't want them. Ill stick with the tesla

Tesla is a millennial car worth at least 80K I don't have that for an electric car! I've driven them and they are nice but not that nice. I'd only have an Model S and I have no desire to spend 100 K on one of those.

Both are good cars; it’s just that Corvettes were THE most sought-after hot cars of the 1960s when we were 8 through 17, and they stuck with us until we could afford them!

And just for the record, all the ladies I’ve seen love Corvettes. They want to see it, get photographed on it, and ride in it!

The biggest problem with any electric is the lack of rumble. My favorite group is the Exhaust Tones. I rarely turn on the radio since I had the exhaust system done.

LOL, I NEVER turn on the radio or CD player in my Vette.

Cd player/radio. Lol this is such a different generational conversation .

 

[Wayne1250]

The first Vettes only had radios, and the very first ones only had AM channels were available.

1966 Coupe, Rally Red. 427 cid. I'll never have another one, short of a miraculous lottery hit.

 

[Icrontic]

Over half way there.

 

[Sam923]

Started many years ago and I’m 62 now.

 

[Gutsandglory]

Yep

 

[boxingsavage123]

I'm no where near 60.

I haven't hit 4th decade, and my boy, who I introduced to mongering, is not yet 30.
Should I feel bad?
Am I the baddie?

Ha you took your kid to get a handy. I always thought of doing that with mine! The only downside I ever saw when I was thinking about it was enabling him to not get and keep real relationships. That's kind of early to start the rabbit hole.

I meant my 'boy' in the colloquial term of 'a class friend', not my son lol.
That said, with just how abysmally shitty dating is these days, maybe I'd take my son to a provider XD

I know many that have. I even knew as dude took his Dad! no shit. guess I should have picked up on "my boy" as not your kid. I'm mid 60's so we talk a bit different. All good carry on!!
