Your "attitude" and behaviors has more to do with your background, education and experiences than your age IMHO.

I couldn't agree more! I've met so many people here in TV in their 70s and 80s that have retained the curiosity and sense of adventure of youth. I've also met people in their 50s so rigid and stuck in the past (some even still wear the same hairstyle and eyeglasses from 30 yrs ago) they seem very old no matter what their age.
