    Absolutely, kids are for the young when you can do without sleep, have no money so you can't spoilt them and financially free in mid forties, then there are the presents called grandchildren.

      I feel like I'd like to learn something completely different (I'm leaning to Art History) and I've been looking to the OU, which seems to be the most affordable option for the quality.

      I'm still looking though.

        I had my assistant suggesting I was having a mid life crisis recently for amongst other things getting into retro gaming, wanting to buy a crocodile skin filofax cover and also looking to buy a classic Mini cooper sport for a resto mod.

            lightweights! had last kid in my 40s and paid the last mortgage off by 40. Then the wife saw a new house she loved and we bought this one with another mortgage.

            No grandkids yet.

              Art History is a good broadener of the mind. I originally was going to do Classics with Art History, but did full Classics as seduced by Greek. No surprise but I'm quite into Italian Renaissance, which has a lot of Classical influences. Go for it, you won't regret it.

                Hiring a hot assistant sounds like the definition of a mid-life crisis in itself.
