Bilbo went on his own Quest at the age of 50 and became famously wealthy as a result of it. I'd definitely consider that a turn for the good. Frodo, on the other hand, inherited the biggest burden in Middle-earth when he turned 50, and had to set out on one of the most suicidal Quests that anyone could ever think of, getting stabbed, bruised, stung, and bitten. Now I'd consider that turn of events definitely bad.
