Oh fuck, I'm 50!
Didn't see that coming.
Anything I should know? Anything I should be doing?

Wanna do one and just make my girlfriend the executor whether she likes it or not. As it is I made her a beneficiary of one of my accounts so if I were to die anytime soon it would create quite a windfall for her. Definitely not telling her though lest she decides to push forward the date of the unfortunate event.
I am sure the ravages of medical neglect will be catching up to me sooner than later.

Even with proper medical attention things can suddenly go south. One

The medical neglect is more a reference to the fact that I still don't have health insurance or been to the doctor since I was 18. I thought 50 was colonoscopy time but apparently it's 45. I already have an enlarged prostate in addition to other hopefully minor stuff I have been ignoring for years. I thought maybe I should do something about it in spite of the fact I haven't worked in years and don't really want to watch my savings fly out the door even faster. It's bad enough my cost of living basically tripled between 2020 and now. And I just missed open enrollment.
I could get a job (with few skills and almost no interpersonal ability) but going to work to stay alive so I can keep going to work really doesn't appeal to me. However something strange happened in the last few years. Seems like along with my sex drive, my constant angst and suicidal ideation also faded. It's almost like the two were related. But I wanna stay alive so I can read and listen to music and pet my cat, not just suck down oxygen while toiling away.
I did want to theoretically donate my body to Glendale Community College where I sputtered through a few semesters of "fun" electives as I figured in death I could have some sort of value to someone but never really looked into the process.
