One, that getting older isn't anywhere near as bad as you thought it would be.
Two, that people who say that they're "in better shape than when I was 20" are fucking liars.
Life expectancy and health solutions being what they are, I fully expect to enjoy my older days. My dad is 63 and still lawyers for the gov't, and lives on a horse farm where he owns and trains his babies. He and his girlfriend go riding and all sorts of shit still.
My boyfriend's plan is to work until retirement age, at which point he will, if he doesn't start one sooner, create a private photography studio. He has no plans to stop working either.
I do know some people who, at my age, definitely look better than they did 10 years ago (at the end of high school) if all the alumni responding for the reunion are anything to go by. Some of those fat, awkward nerds turned out (awkwardly enough) really good looking. Or they're using airbrushed avatars.
