I'll define: we get to a position of financial power by 30, whilst all the while keeping in shape, we spend the 30 years from 20-50 screwing hundreds of fit honeys in dozens of warm, tropical and cultured climes worldwide, before finally our we've networked enough to lawyer up to obfuscate our assets so astutely that we can pair off with a hot but smart but not TOO smart 20something with strong familial values so that, worst-case, she'd only get 10%, tops, after 2 years, if she somehow uncharacteristically decides to abandon those values. Likely she stays as by then we've learned the fine art of bringing a girl to the big OOOOOOOOOOOO!!!.

Compare and contrast to...and here's the part I'm sure the vast majority of you reading know only too well.. your average slob working a 37.5 hr job he hates, going back to a wife he doesn't want to fuck anymore, to kids who are deep within the rebellion phase. You hit 50 and even if you've made something financially, guys like me don't REALLY respect you. Because your wife is likely fucking some penniless wannabe men's model with all 6 abs showing and half your age who'll dump her six weeks later when his next afternoon's work comes through, your kids think you're a old fart (and frankly, given how much of a beating the corporate world gave you in 3 decades, they're not wrong). By this time you're too old, too worn and too jaded to have any sway with the 20-something honeys who are being pursued by guys of all ages, some even OLDER than you, and you don't even get a damn look-in !!

A couple of precursors:

Butt-hurt women (of a certain age) - deal with it. You have nothing to offer so waste your time elsewhere.

Butt-hurt guys - This splash of cold water is complimentary. No charge made. I'm just curious, what's your plan to get back to the cool side?
