65 to 79 is the happiest age group for adults, according to Office for National Statistics research.
The survey of more than 300,000 adults across the UK found life satisfaction, happiness and feeling life was worthwhile all peaked in that age bracket, but declined in the over-80s.
Those aged 45 to 59 reported the lowest levels of life satisfaction, with men on average less satisfied than women.
That age group also reported the highest levels of anxiety.
I hope one day technology allows us to be old and the benefits that come with it mentally (wisdom, bliss, not giving a shit about petty things) while still having a healthy physical body 🙂
I can see that – they’ve lived the dream, fucked the world and the youngers have to clean up their mess.
Fucking boomers
Interesting, people who don’t have to wake up early every day, commute for 2 hours and work for 8 are happier than those who do, who would’ve thought?
They bought houses for £10k, 40 years ago and are living a great life off the equity. I’d be really happy too
Because this sick ride is almost over.
Because the governments are pampering them. And squeezing the young people to pay for it.

Less stress. That’s why.
