Growing older doesn’t have to be a negative thing. With age comes many joys – among them, a plethora of discounts that open up to you when you reach a certain age. Many of these discounts start kicking in around age 50 or 55, and since “50 is the new 40,” you’ll have plenty of time and energy to enjoy some of these fabulous offers.
