Let’s be honest: the truest freebie at sixty is the ability to say “no” to stuff you hate. For free. No cost, no guilt. You can skip traffic by driving at 10 a.m. on a Tuesday. You can join a library’s free book club and leave after the first chapter if it’s boring. You can get free advice from your friends that’s wildly outdated, but it’s free, so you just nod and sip your discounted coffee.
So go ahead—ask for the discount, grab that free park map, and laugh at the younger people paying full price. You’ve earned this. Now, if only gravity and free same-day delivery were also covered…
