Many people became successful when they were elderly (e.g. Colonel Sanders). The Colonel didn't just sit on the couch and sigh about his expanding waistline. He seized the day and became a millionaire!

On the same time, I find I enjoy more company with someone who reads and can laugh about something an author wrote in a book

My first boyfriend absolutely hated reading. It was strange to me, but I figured to each their own.
We dated for a year and within that time I only read two or three books mainly because we were always together, and reading was something he often referred to as stupid...or a waste of time.
Thank goodness I got out of that when I did!
My husband loves to read. He doesn't read as many books as I do, but our reading styles are also very different. The books he reads are often centered around mythology so they are usually much longer, more complex stories than my choice of genres, which are usually more light hearted.
I'm so thankful for a spouse who enjoys reading and understands when he rolls over in bed at 4 am to find me reading "Just one more chapter"
I think a life together not shared by reading, would be quite lonely in the end.
