The Perfect Age

Yesterday I turned 28 years old. Thanks to everyone who called to wish me a happy one. 28 is an interesting age because it is a perfect number. That means it is the sum of all its divisors. 28 can be divided by 1, 2, 4, 7, and 14, and 1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14 = 28. The last age I reached that was a perfect number was 6 and the next one will be 496. I don't know if perfect numbers are lucky or not but you can probably tell I received my birthday call from Dale Shoultz.
