My kids say:
Birth to 30 is young.
31-60 is middle aged.
Over 60 is old.
Over 90 is fucking old.
People are aging more slowly than they did in the past, better information about health now. Look up 55 year old celebrities. These are certainly middle aged people, they aren't young, and most don't look old either. That is how I would define middle age and it's getting longer. You can't get old at 40, you will be old too long.

Celebrities pay a lot of money to stay looking the way they do, and most people who have to work labor and stuff dont have the privilege to look or feel that way

A lot of that has to do with smoking. Smoking adds wrinkles. It makes you look older. A lot of older celebrities smoked and a lot of younger ones don't.

Celebrities also have the best health care, access to the best food, and personal trainers. There's a reason you only really see them either dying from freak accident, substance abuse, or random hard to beat cancer.
The rest of us do not get those allowances.

It blew my mind to learn that Bob Odenkirk was 52 when they started filming Better Call Saul. To me, he looked like he was in his 30s.
(I'm not that great at estimating age just by looking at someone, though.)
