Life Assets: Car, job, biscuits.
General Feeling: Generally deadpan and dry yet secretly bubbling with energy.
Goals: Get signed off on the management training programme at work and save up a deposit for a house. Might buy a new car for Christmas. That'd be fun. Ultimately I'd like to either get involved in the business in China/Asia or bag a management job with Home Depot and emigrate to Seattle or somewhere scenic.

Life Assets: iMac, Stereo setup.
General Feeling: Wooooooooo!!!! OFF TO UNI IN 1 MONTH
Everything is as good as I care it to be.
Goals: Get a job closer to the uni I'm moving to. Finish uni with decent results. Have such a great time it makes the £8k/yr loan sort of worth it.

Age: 37 (how did THAT happen?!)
Life Assets: 1 x wife, 1 x kid, 2 x car, 1 x mortgage
General Feeling: Good times, good times. Life is pretty much fantastic for us at the moment.
Goals: Convince her that a WRX Sti is a practical family car; help and encourage my daughter and wife to develop and grow; achieve the promotion I'm capable of and likely to get - just need to make it happen.

Dad?
Or is this something that all middle age men do?
... Because it actually is practical!
Edit: 999th post
Are you saying I'm middle aged?
Christ. Really?We already have a twin turbo Subaru Legacy GTB which is the politer hooligan to the WRX STi ASBO upstart
I'll probably buy one next year if prices continue to drop.e : considering likely life expectancy I am middle aged. Well, that just ******* sucks
You've just ruined my Saturday afternoon, mister!

Life Assets: the wisdom gained from so many experiences that I've had, and the ones yet to come. The appreciation of my immediate family. Oh, and my awesome metabolism!
General Feelings: Didn't get into uni, no point crying, there's always next year - it's not like I'll live to retire given the circumstances anyway!!
Goals: To do whatever I feel, whether it is academic, physical or just plain ridiculous, as long as I am pushing a new boundary, and grinning whilst I do, I'm happy.

Bloody hell this thread is depressing, the number of people around my age who have houses that are nearly paid off.
Age: 27
Life Assets: Good career, wonderful son, great family, car and a bit of savings
General Feeling: Positive and cautiously optimistic
Goal: Pay for and organise the wedding without any major problems, lose weight, get my own team at work and buy a house more long term. Once I've dealt with that little lot I'll decide what's next.

Life Assets: Car, job, dj'ing.
General Feeling: Annoyed at car, frustrated with job and wishing dj'ing would take off properly.
Goals: Now that I've got back in the gym, I want to stick at that properly. Keep hammering out the dnb/breaks recordings and get more gigs. Oh and that thing called a career...ermm... I'll keep at that one I guess.

Life Assets:Beautiful wife, 3 cats, mortgage, unispiring car, lots of broken hardware :/
General feeling:Pretty poor frankly. We've had a garbage year, with the death of two close family members, and my lady having had a miscarriage after 2 years of trying. Add to the fact that everything electrical keeps dieing in the house (up to now this year, PS3-swapped under warranty), TV (still arguing SoGA with a competitor), PC PSU (years old, can't afford to replace). I'm in a job that I enjoy, but is stressful and unrewarding. I've been pushing for promotion for years, and despite being put forward for positions by immediate management, regional management seem to overlook me every time, but at least the job is secure. It's not the career path that I really want (see below), but it pays the bills. I'm regularly wiped out by debilitating migraines too, they suck.
Goals: First and foremost, sort my employment situation. I fancy software development, but my motivation has been quite poor over the last few years, and I've never got around to sorting it. I'm currently teaching myself C++, from a solid PHP base. We'll see. Sort the house out (it's like a building site). Get the wife pregnant again (potentially I could be shooting blanks here, medically we're being checked at the moment). Sort out migraines, I'm awaiting a neurologist's referral atm.
*sigh*

Life assets: flat, car, boat
General feelings: hate my job at the moment, being working far to many hours which means I have no spare time to do fun things or go to the gym, hopefully this will change soon or I will start looking for a new job. Have also been doing the same thing for over 2 years which is getting a bit boring.
Goals: do up a house and sell it on in the next couple of years, start a business before i'm 30, get a promotion at work asap.

Life assets: car, girlfriend, degree
General feelings: good. Just graduated with an MEng in Chemical Engineering, and fingers crossed going to do a funded PhD at Cambridge. Keeps me off the streets for another 3 years! Summer internship work at a low-carbon firm is very interesting.
Goals: do well in the PhD, hopefully publish a few papers during the course. Complete internship report and hopefully publish that too.
