Oh, no, the AARP mail starts long before you turn 60.

Once other little moment is when you use the AARP card for senior
discounts, they quit carding you.

As part of this growing old era, I'm seriously thinking about growing up
one of these days. Which is kinda hard for a man whose life ambition
is to go out at the age of 101 at the hands of an irate father.

Oh God Jeff!
My husband started getting stuff from them in his 40s.
After a couple of years he wrote "DECEASED" on one of their letters and sent
it back to them. He didn't get anything again until he filed for SSI last
year at 62.

THEN he wrot 'Until you stop mixing in politics, I want nothing to do with
your anti-gun organization!" and sent it back in their envelope.
Again, we are off their mailing list.
