Artykuł jest doniesieniem z badań nad troskami i radościami życia w starości. Materiał badawczy stanowiły pisemne wypowiedzi 237 słuchaczy Uniwersytetów III Wieku (test niedokończonych zdań): W starości najtrudniejsze jest..., Największą zaletą starości jest... Po ich zinterpretowaniu określono podstawowe zalety życia w starości. Są nimi: możliwość swobodnego zarządzania czasem, realizacja własnych pasji i zainteresowań, doświadczenie i mądrość życiowa oraz uwolnienie się od obowiązków zawodowych i rodzinnych - swoboda i niezależność. Na drugiej szali umieszczone zostały trudy życia w starości. Głównie są to problemy zdrowotne, ale dużym problemem okazała się także samotność i pozostałe troski egzystencjalne. Wnioski z badań wskazują na to, że dla badanych seniorów starość ma więcej blasków niż cieni. Wpływ na to bez wątpienia ma zdiagnozowany w tych badaniach wysoki poziom satysfakcji życiowej słuchaczy UTW.

Research materials consist of written declarations of 237 listeners of the Universities of the Third Age (unfinished sentences test): The hardest part in old age is... , The biggest advantage of old age is... After the declarations were interpreted, the basic advantages of living in old age were defined. These were: the possibility of leisure time management, the realization of their own passions and interests, acquisition of experience and wisdom and freedom from work and family responsibilities - freedom and autonomy. The hardships of life in old age were placed on the other scale. These were mainly health problems, but the big issues were also loneliness and other existential concerns. Conclusions from the study indicated that for seniors old age had more pros than cons. Undoubtedly, the high level of life satisfaction of U3A listeners diagnosed in these studies influenced to the results.
