Many of the dead have more influence and regularly make more money than the living. See Jesus, Elvis, Freud and Hendrix for more info.

Yeah, Elvis makes more money now than he ever did while alive. The old saying you can't take it with you really applies to Elvis. Makes you wonder if he had lived a healthy lifestyle and lived to a ripe old age if he would have made the same money he did after he died young?

People regularly live to 80, 90 and 100. In that respect 42 is still in the first half of your life. 50 is the new 30!
