Or at least the part of your life that sets everything else up.

0-19 you learn and grow.

20-30 what will your life be

31-100 deal with what you got.

Speak for yourself. I am 39 and will never just deal with what I have. I have grown and changed more in the last 2 years than I ever did in my 20s and early 30s.

People who deal with it just want to stay flat and one-level and that seems boring AF to me.

If you aren't always striving for onward and better than what are you doing.

By 30 you have set yourself on a path that very few will get off of.

Horrible take, I'm in my 40s and my kids are about to leave the nest and I am looking forward to it.

I didn’t get into the field that made me the most money until I was in my early 30s.

20s were the worst time of my life. 30s have been awesome so far.

This is of course true about every stage of life, but that shouldn't be your outlook. There is too much goodness and beauty in life to see it that way

I don’t know how old you are.

But you should be living by as life is the current decade you’re in.

Your fifties should be just as healthy as your thirties. And you make more money. You should be smarter and more wise.


Your twenties are infantile compared to your fifties.

Thats on them. Everyone is capable of change and achieving what they want. Most are just too lazy.

Maybe I worded it wrong.

I feel like the actions you take in your 20s have a bigger influence on the rest of your life than any other time.

One or 2 different choices could drastically change the rest of your life.

Eh, I made a pivot and got out of what I was doing and switched to trucking at age 32. Making $100k/yr now and am debt free for the first time since I was 18.
