When you approach the age 40, if you are observant, u will notice alot of changes in your life , both physically, mentality, health wise, and people's approach to u...

Some of this changes are listed below through person experience

People's approach to you

1. You will begin to notice the addition of "sir" when younger ones greet you.. this is not to say people don't greet you when you turned 30. But this time around alot of sir will accompany the greetings

2. Alot of aged ladies will b attracted to you if u are still single...

3. Almost everyone that doesn't know you will assume u are married if u are not by that age

3. Any kid playing around you will b assume to b your child by strangers

4. You will b gossiped about alot by everyone in your neighborhood if you are not married yet at that age
5. If u are single ,you will no longer b able to date young girls for two reasons:

1. Is the unmatched appearance together as society will speak about it too much
2. The girls will stylishly say no, cuz to them you are old.. remember u now have white beards and monstach

Physical changes

1. You will begin to grow grey hair from 35 up

2. Your face will naturally begin to drop from 38.. there will b this obvious daily deep lines running down from your nose sideways down to your side mouth... It will get deeper and more glaring with time

3. You mind will mostly be about finance and good life rather than women

4. You will not b able to jump wide gutters as easily as you previously can..not cuz you can't do it anymore, but your guts will fail u

5. If you are a fast worker, your speed will reduce

6. You may not easily get tired after long work, but your time for body restoration of your energy will now take longer

7. You will begin to wake late unless u maintained the alarm culture...to beat this u need to sleep early unlike the youths..

8. If you embark on a long road travel and you belong in the group of never sleeping in the bus, you will begin experience sleeping in the bus often..

9. From 35 up, u will lower your hair cuts and before or around 40 if u are not an obviously hairy person, u will move to barbing skin hair cut..this is because u will lose very visible part of your hair (baldness) and to measure it up will lead to u barbing skin...

Health changes

1. Family history health concerns will begin to show up..e.g bad eyesight. Etc

2. New set of age prone health issues will also become your concern as BP, low sugar, high sugar breathing problem will all b your concern...

3. Your prowess in the other room will reduce, urge is not affected, but efectiveness will..
Not totally true. I am 43 years old. I wake up by 5am without any issues, no health issues whatsoever(Genetics from my mother who is 65 without any single health challenges).My prowess in the other room is still top notch, I haven't noticed anything. Young ladies especially between the ages of 27 to 32 still dey on my matter (don't know why).

The only thing I have noticed is my hair and beard is now going grey. That's all. Besides I'm divorced with a 12 and 16 years old (Daughters). So I'm not bothered about marrying again (We have joint custody).

See where you are missing the point

Nobody says u will wake up early with issue.. u concluded on that.. what we are talking about is get indulge in jobs take sap energy and sleep late, let's know weda u will wake early not purposefully dou.. let u and a 27year old without setting alarm go on weeks of early wake up after stressful days work Weber you both sleep late.. u will understand better.. bottom line u sleep before 11pm.

Read again. I mentioned family traditional health concerns will set in @ age 40. U escaped this cuz u already do not have any family tradition healty concern... Alot of ppl has, eyesight, diabetes, HPB as a traditional health concerns in their larger family.

27 to 32 are not girls.. they are ladies . Not even you g ladies.. just ladies.. when I mentioned girls . I meant 18-23. Go ask them out.. not sugar daddy stuff oo.. just for relationship and hear the response..

Prowess in the other room actually depends on the newness of the lady for ppl like you.. the newer the lady, the more excited your hormones are to act.. and that is a case for you cuz u are divorce which gives u right to multiple sex patners... Even at that, u are never as good as a good 26year old..

These things are inevitable

Oga no generalize joor,it depends on your genes and life style,there are men in their 40s who are very sharp and active still looking younger than their age I am 33, but girls of 18 and 20s still find Me attractive I don't think that will change in 7 years time,like I said it all depends on your genes are lifestyle.

I am way above the age the guy used out there as a benchmark but guess what?

a, I still gym. I have a mini gym at home and i do compete with the supposed younger persons on virtually all programs
b. I still play football and should actually be leaving for the pitch at 3.30pm this evening (I am an All-Stars member). I am featuring in a match.

There are so many other things that don't work the way he outlined them, but yes age must have its effects. I am no longer the tiger I used to be in za oza room but then, I think more about investments now than prowess under the duvet. We give financial orgasm now.
You dey boost me sir 😂😂😂

Because if your bank account is fresh and your fingers aren't slow with your bank app, you'll have mint and fresh girls in their early 20s flocking around you and proudly flaunting you in the neighborhood.

Bro rest
I am 40
If you see me, most of you in your 20s or 30s look way older than me
Though I have few strands or white hair on my beards
Asides that, I am athletic, muscular and fit
How u use ur 20 and 30 matters too
Do everything in moderation and exercise
If you have the strength, work out
Limit alcohol
I dont smoke and carry girls up and down anyhow
This I have been doing for donkey years
Married with 2 big boys

that is not entirely true, how this things affects you individually depends on your lifestyle in your 20s & 30s.
This is the real essence of this post. Don't get him wrong.

He is indirectly creating awareness about self consciousness and living a healthy lifestyle that will make it easier at 40.

With the grace of God, good health, proper structure, and money, life begins at 40! 😎

I am more effective in the other room than i was 10 years ago. Also my hair growth increased but white hair increased also. The sir part is true. Also the married part. Im still several years from 40 and people think im married. When a lady or ladies see im not i become a target. So im extra careful cuz ladies that have crossed the age of marriage without suitor to settle with see me as a chance not to be missed so i somehow act like a snub and get disliked when i dont return the attention im given

This is all nonsense! There are 50-60-year-olds out there who still feel so much younger than you do if this is how your 40s turned out. You'd better start now making better decisions so you can improve your life, mental and physical health, before it is too late! 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
