Are you old at 50?
Some people say that people are old when they are 50 years old, but it is not necessarily true. According to the retirement age, Chinese women retire at the age of 55 and men retire at the age of 60. This standard has not changed since ancient times.

I believe everyone has heard of the idiom "semi-old Xu Niang", which originally meant Xu Niang, the concubine of the emperor, but after the prime of life, she is still affectionate. Nowadays, it is often used to refer to women who still have charm in middle age. Among them, semi-old, in ancient times, mostly refers to 30 years old. According to this calculation, women who are 60 years old are old.

Within the scope of China, from ancient times to the present, the really old people are basically around 60 years old, which is often said to be 60 years old. From a global perspective, the same is true. Who has a new definition of the elderly, and those over 60 years old are considered elderly. It is only subdivided into young old people (60 to 74 years old), real old people (75 to 90 years old) and long-lived old people (over 90 years old).
