have you tried being rich?

[–] Son_of_dad@lemmy.world 24 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Enough money to never worry about bills, buy what you want, have a team of chefs, trainers, cleaning staff, landscapers. Not have to deal with a bullshit, soul crushing 9-5 job, you work as much or as little as you want in between vacations, the best spa and products in the world.

Yeah no wonder they still look ok at that age. And I guarantee she rarely looks that good, only for photo time.

Also, getting your photo professionally shot and edited to make you appear as young and universally attractive, in pictures where your hair has been styled and colored for the same reason, with clothes chosen by professionals to enhance your femininity and beauty, not to mention the resources to use cosmetic surgery to remove any signs of aging.

Sure, stress ages the body, but so does turning 40. It's not like being rich just makes you look 28 for another decade. Give me the same team behind this shot and I could make any of you look like this good or better, regardless of your starting point, I guarantee it.

Even celebs like Shakira probably look like a hot mess when first waking up and trying to figure out what planet you're on

I have none of that, and I'm pretty damned good looking at 53. Here's the trick; I don't stuff my face and I go outside and get exercise. Crazy, right?!

Next you should try working on humility!

No! Should I try harder? Will that work? Or is it simply too late?
