'I hit 40 and the check engine light came on': Elder Millennials forecast what to expect during your mid-life crisis

Crunchy knees, grey hairs, and an insatiable urge to give hooligans the bird? Toto, I have a feeling we're not in our 30s anymore.

Aging is inevitable, but for some, it comes as a surprise that their body starts to deteriorate when you find 40 birthday candles on your cake. Humans are meant to slow down a bit when we reach a certain age and although our minds are fit as a fiddle and we feel like a spry 20-year-old (albeit wiser), it's like the 'Check Engine' light came on in our joints and we've got a pretty constant throbbing in our backs. Are we sore from exercising or sore from not exercising?

And as elder millennials realize what it's like to age out of their Coachella years, what are some things that they can expect? So if you care to lament with your fellow silverbacks, scroll onward to read about the joys of hitting your 5th decade on this Earth.
