What is Fab Over 40?

What do you love about being over 40?

I love that the mistakes I made in my younger years dont define the persen I am today I love that I love my self more and can appreciate my self more I love that I now know it's ok to admit the hardship and struggle and to not be ashamed of my past because my mistakes when I was younger define me now that I am in my 40s

How do you stay fabulous?

I try to stay positive and think of my self as beautiful even though I dint feel like that I try to push through I distract my self with working hard and try to focus on a better life

What would you do with the $40,000?

I've never had anything more than a regular 9 to five pay check in my life but I was always able to feed my kids because of that so I'm grateful I don't think someone like me would ever see that kind of money but I imagine if I did I would have a chance to be able to take care of my kids better
