    That is, if you don't have children at the age of 40, then don't have children, because 40 years old is already an advanced maternal age, so having a child will be seriously dangerous, which will lead to the death of a pregnant woman, and at the age of 50, if you have not made a fortune and got ahead, then this life can only be spent like this, because when you are older, you don't have a lot of energy to start a business and make money, and you will pay more than young people.

    Because when people reach the age of 40, all physical abilities will be relatively weak, and if they give birth to children at the age of 40, it will also be easy to cause advanced age to give birth. Similarly, when a person is 50 years old, the indicators of the body decline, and the resistance is relatively weak, if he goes to start a business and develop again, the pressure on his body will be greater, and it is more likely to cause life danger.

    There are many catchy sayings in the countryside, which are summed up by the old farmers based on their life and work experience. The proverb covers a wide range, such as agricultural planting, solar terms, and many aspects of life, such as the proverb "Forty does not set up a son, fifty does not make a fortune", so what does this proverb mean? Does that make sense?

    Forty does not have children: Forty does not have children: Forty does not have children, so forty does not have children when a man reaches the age of forty. The reason why there is such a statement is related to the living environment and life expectancy of farmers in the past.

    Because the living environment in the countryside was relatively poor in the past, and the diet and medical care level in the countryside were relatively poor, the life expectancy of people was not very long in the past, so there was also a saying of "seventy ancient rare", that is, there were not many people who lived to the age of seventy in the past.

    If you still have to have a child at the age of forty, then by the time the son of the old man reaches the age of twenty, he has reached the age of sixty, and at this time the sixty-year-old person has lost the ability to work, but the adult son has reached the age when he should get married, although the conditions for marriage in the past were not very high, but it still requires a lot of money, so at that time there is no ability to let the son get married smoothly, so having a son at the age of forty is not only harmful to himself, but also to the child.

    Fifty does not make a fortune: Fifty does not make a fortune means that people should live a quiet life after reaching the age of fifty, rather than investing and taking risks. People often say that "fifty knows the destiny of heaven", which means that after reaching the age of fifty, people have gone through more than half of the life journey, because they have already learned lessons from the past successes and failures, so after the age of fifty, they should be more cautious, rather than rash action, or direct investment.

    After the age of 50, not only is the body not as good as before, but the energy is also the same, if you have to do such a very dangerous thing as investment after the age of 50, then it is very likely that because of your own shortcomings, the investment will fail, which will affect the normal life of the family. Because he has reached the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, he has no ability to repay debts, and these debts may fall on his children, so the old peasants advised that after the age of fifty, men should stop thinking about making a fortune, but should live in peace.

    Because rural sayings are summarized according to the previous social experience, so many sayings have the characteristics of the times, with the continuous change of the times, many sayings are not suitable for the current society, as the saying "forty do not set up, fifty do not make a fortune" is so. Because people's life expectancy has been continuously extended, and the level of medical care has been continuously improved, although there is a certain truth in "forty do not set up children, fifty do not make a fortune", but it does not conform to the current social form.

    When people reach the age of 30, they should work hard, be aggressive, and never be indulgent and disdainful, because that kind of life is a life without hope. If you don't have a significant fortune in your 40s, then your life is bound to be very dark, and by the time you are in your 50s, I'm afraid you will have to wait for death.
