I turned 50 last year and it gives you a moment of clarity, like you just start seeing things differently, in a good way.

40's we're pretty awesome. Good decade.

30's started off sucking due to some personal life issues but turned out good. The difference is in my 30's I worried about money and my career. Hell, I haven't thought about money now in about 10 years. No worries there.

I wish I could redo my 20's. Lot of regrets there about poor decisions and not really living life and enjoying being young.

There is no greater truth than "youth is wasted on the young."

25-35 should be the best, but most of us are still too dumb to know what to do with that time.

Right fricking now. Making decent money. Good family at home. Life is good.

I long for the old days as we all do, but I had problems back then too. We can’t live in the past forever. I’d give anything to go back to my grandparent’s house for a family crawfish boil in the mid 90’s for a day. Just not feasible.

Knowing my kids are in their good ole days now is cathartic for me. It’s all good.

I agree with a lot of this. Especially the redoing my 20's. I was raised in an extremely restrictive religious cult that I did not break free from until my mid-30's. I got out, started a business, got married, bought a ranch, and had a baby girl. I'll be 42 this year. Bidenomics sucks as a business owner, but I have the freedom to be home with my 18-month old as much as I want to be.

I feel like I've only really lived my own life for the past few years. If I'd been able to have an additional 10-15 years without living under the thumb of a cult, there's no telling where I'd be now.

The past few years have been fun, though. At least I'm not still living life according to someone else's direction. And my baby girl is absolutely amazing. She and her mom are the best parts of my life.

I'm 53. So many ways to answer bc of regrets in my life. 20's with the love of my life. 30's got married had my 2 incredible kids. 40's divorced. Single through out my 40's till late 40's. Relationship again late 40's till now. TMI, but to answer your question, it's every day you wake up. Regrets, took a long time to realize how to treat a woman. I finally learned in my mid-40's. Way too long.

People assume you don’t know what you’re doing at 25 so you have to have a ton of confidence and actual ability to thrive at that age. It’s kind of cruel because your physical and mental tools are starting to peak around that age.

I mean, 0-2, you get constantly doted on, everything is new and amazing, and you get to suck on a titty pretty much any time you want.

I'd say that's pretty sweet. 3-7 is a lot similar except you have more autonomy and less titty. (Unless your mom is one of those super crunchy types.)

8-13 are a learning period, but still pretty. Cool if you let them be.



Teen years SUCK for everyone.

Your parents know they are losing their sweet children for some moody gangly creature.
Society knows how awful and lame teens are (because they can look back and remember)
And teens, (because they can't) are insufferable because they know everything already and can't be bothered.

If babies were born as teenagers we'd throw them off cliffs.

Mid 30’s I’d say. Still young enough to do everything and old enough to have learned some wisdom.

If my feet didn’t hurt I’d say 60’s aren’t bad though.
