I've recently found that it is way easier in your thirties to make friends with 70 year olds. They have time to meet whenever you are available, have great perspective and in my case, share more if my interests than people my age.

Try gardening groups, dancing lessons, bridge groups, local language classes, and you'll find tons of friends!

This is basically the plot of Breaking Bad.

Walter was almost in his 40s at the beginning of the series.

Went back and checked: Walter was 50 at the start of the series. The series spanned two years of in-universe time, and he died at 52.

Anyway, the point stands. Cooking meth is a valid shared interest for an older man and a younger man to bond over.

Actually, you're right, but it couldn't be closer. The show starts at 5:02AM on his fiftieth birthday.
