Skip the sympathy for millennials and Gen Z—they've still got time to bounce back. The real financial pain hits different when you hit 50. By then, the damage is already done, and the runway to recovery shrinks fast. That's where the real pressure lies.

Being 50 is true despair; I should have really gone all out in my twenties.

50 is just the beginning of the nightmare; when you're young, even if you're terrible, you can turn things around.

50 is the real point of despair. Losing everything when you're young can still be turned around, but at that age, it's truly beyond redemption.
