Ability to pay for my club dues, play golf alone sometimes, and with my family all the time. Have enough money for a few trips a year.

That still requires substantial cash flow, but I am not in a rush to partner as fast as I once was after having our second boy.

Time with family is what matters most now.

I am an SM for reference.

Used to be focused on increasing my salary and KPIs. Now I am more focused on reducing my handicap!

Flexibility to spend time with my family (getting the kids into it and having the time /$ to do so)

not 3 putting and meeting great people that I can either work with or find a job with.

Now in my older years - I am looking for roles where the companies value the humans...not so much chasing salary. I want some sort of stability and decent pay with great people. When I was younger, it was chasing a title and pay.

Thought I’d be thrilled to be a 2 handicap. Now want to be a +3 or better and be competitive on the local am circuit

I’m 25 and still have a good head of hair, but can see myself greying and feel like more and more hair is falling out every day. Not noticeable but have heard prevention is everything for this and am following the exact pattern my grandfather did, who had thick hair like mine and then was bald by 30.

Appreciate all you stylish folk and hope everyone has a great day.
