There are always a few people who stick by the narcissist’s side to the very end and even carry on the work of the narcissist. These flying monkeys are bitter, twisted, or just plain evil; that is the only way I can describe them. They, like everyone else, would have witnessed some of the atrocities of the narcissist, but still endured with them and defended them to the very end.
Many narcissists manage to have flying monkeys, no matter what age they are. The flying monkeys themselves may have changed over the years, but they are very useful to the narcissist. So, the narcissist seems to always find a way to keep attracting people of that caliber. They may have fewer people to work with as they get older, but they’re sure to have at least one devoted flying monkey.

5. The Narcissist’s Finances.
The fifth thing we want to look at is the narcissist’s financial status and how it can contribute to their ongoing reign of terror.
Although many narcissists become less of a physical threat due to health issues and general lack of mobility, some narcissists remain a physical threat if they have money, power, and connections. A narcissist with these three things will do everything in their power to make your life miserable, no matter how old they are or where they are.
They will try to use their power, influence, and money to get others to carry out their dirty work. For those narcissists who lack money or power, they instead create unnecessary drama through slander and lies. They do it to entertain themselves and to keep causing division.

6. The Narcissist’s Image.
The final thing I want to look at is the physical image of the narcissist. Physically, the narcissist’s appearance is not just a reflection of old age but evil itself. The envy and hatred that they have are clearer for those who are able to see it because that well-polished mast develops more cracks as the years pile on.
Narcissists are forever bitter and filled with unforgiveness and hate. In old age, they do not have the strength to maintain the flawless act of being the hero or victim, and their negativity can be felt and seen on their faces. Also, their eyes reveal their dark, cold, vindictive nature and the emptiness that is within. But despite all this, there are people who are still blind to see the narcissist for who and what they are, as the image of a vulnerable elderly man or lady is all they can see.
But to conclude, the aging narcissists see themselves as about to go out of the game. So they try to take as many people down as they can before they exit this life. They will never forgive or ever validate those who seek their validation. The age narcissist is still evil, deluded, and out for blood. They cannot be trusted, and age does not make them better. Instead, they rot from the inside out. Age reveals the darkness that they hid so well in their youth.

And although they may lose a lot of that charm and their physical strength and stamina decline, that tongue of theirs never stops spitting lies, never stops slandering and talking crap about others. They are always looking for a listening ear to pour their poison into.
Increased age does not change the narcissist or make them better. They do not get wiser as they get older; all they leave behind them through the years are a lot of broken hearts and broken dreams. They view old age not as a blessing, but as a curse, and they would sacrifice anything and anyone in order to get their youth back.
