I turn 50 in 2 months. (I'm as surprised as anyone.)
I just had my first kid, a son, 7 months ago. He is amazing. But also, I'll be 70 when he turns 21 and that is terrifying. I'm hoping he keeps me young :)
A few years ago I ditched Ruby and went into Elixir. It's been amazing. I don't know what kind of self-limiting BS you're telling yourself but you sound like you're just in a rut and need to change your surroundings. Plus, 2 years of COVID is a drag on anyone's psyche.
I love gaming. Gaming's been better than it has ever been.
I also love EDM. Same story, the fact that recommendation engines know my taste SO well means I don't have to lose touch. I'm still listening to songs that came out a week ago on a regular basis.
I too have some money saved, and some early startup work has started to pay off. So I'm currently working on a business plan (very hard as I have some ADHD) to start a business, I think I have enough industry time to pull it off and I'd love mentoring people.
Find your thrill, sleep well, exercise, etc. etc. Make sure you don't have seasonal affective disorder. Good luck
