How does one have multiple heart attacks at 31? Congenital defects? Just curious - I'm not too far from 30 and it makes me paranoid...
- cperciva 8y agoI read that as him having his first heart attack at 31 and many more later in life. Aside from congenital issues, heart attacks at that age are typically complications of other issues.
- ggambetta 8y agoI think it means the first of his lifetime six heart attacks was at 31. I'm 38 and equally paranoid :)
- Scoundreller 8y agoImagine how paranoid he must have been after his 3rd or 4th, knowing that it's probably going to happen again and may be his last...
- oliveshell 8y ago>Congenital defects? Almost certainly. If your diet and lifestyle are even remotely healthy, and you don’t have a history of heart disease in your family, it’s very unlikely you have anything to worry about. Otherwise, a visit to a cardiologist should put your mind at ease.
- sah2ed 8y agoYes, congenital defects. His first heart attack came at 31, he went on to have several more heart attacks. From his Wikipedia entry: At age 31, Bogle suffered from his first of several heart attacks, and at age 38, he was diagnosed with the rare heart disease arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia. He received a heart transplant in 1996 at age 65.[13][14] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_C._Bogle#Personal_life https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_C._Bogle#Personal_life
