The universe wouldn’t exist without life; The force that determines it’s existence. So in that sense, time being only a perception, the amount of time it took for the universe to begin, and life to exist is irrelevant because nothing could determine (or rather experience) how long it would take.

Not really on topic, but if you want to know the value of life, its the most valuable of all because of this fact.

Life. Don’t talk to me about life.

Or, at least, if you’re going to, please provide significant quantities of alcohol.

Anyway I think the whole 42 thing has got too much attention. My favorite bit is the ruler of the universe. I’d sure like to visit him one day, and sing to his cat… which has nothing whatsoever to do with this post, but there you go.

After 40 you need different considerations to your life that include finances, life style and maintaining your health.

My guess : 42 was Adams’s age when he wrote the book. Thus, for him, the universe (and everything) had a timestamp of 42 years attached.
