I’m more of a white collar type on this board but stick around for my love of LSU football and its culture. You’re completely wrong and you’ll see that as you get older.

Your 30s and early 40s are where the most change occurs. And some of your most lifelong memories are made. 20s....ehh..just an extension of college. Nothing of significance happened in my 20s. I didnt even really get fully invested in my career until mid 30s.

Started my own business at 40. I had no idea I would do that in my 20s or even the first half of my 30s.

Nah.. at 25 I decided to go back and finish college.. 07-08 financial crisis hit thought I had it all planned out. Changed careers at 30 and now I’m 45 and possibly looking at doing something completely different until retirement age. So I can’t agree with this

Wasn’t the case for me. I started a business when I was 34 and it radically changed my circumstances.

The best years of my life, by far, were 30-55. That’s the true golden years of one’s life.

My 30’s and 40's were awesome, had money, a house, two boats and was single…

Not a worry in the world….
