Gee, I'm 60 and have a number of tattoos, and still getting them (latest was 2 weeks ago). I've never had any negative comments at work or anywhere in public. Getting one is a personal decision and really is no one else's business. Just like convertible automobiles, pink bathrooms, and stucco walls...it's not for everyone.
Well, are you one of those people that doesn't look past tomorrow with his finances, too?
