I turn 35 this year, I own a house (which appreciated in value 35% in 4 years), I’m married, I love my job and I’m planning on having a child in the next year or two, so…what was the question? I just wanted to brag.
LMFAO at 26 year olds worried about life and complaining about their physique. what kind of pussy ass thread is this. ive lived in going on 3 different states since i left my home state at 25, had some nice vacations outside the usa, and im working on making sure i see 5 times more then what i already have.
get the fuck out your parents basement, move, and apply your skills, degrees, whatever. stop letting society make you fear what you dont need to. jesus christ the matrix is real.
to think a century ago life expectancy was what, in its 40s, and now you get the beauty and opportunity to experience all this technological, social, and political greatness, and you sweating over not having a job with an engineering degree (which is crazy), and getting fat.
maaan, damn. thats why sometimes i say i think the social generational gap is even shorter then i want it to be, and im not even old. lol. you better find you a nice low cost of living city to move to with jobs and put in that work, nigga. dont be on srk trying to get advice from predominately 19 year olds and fat ugly bum ass niggas. lol
Turning 30 this month. Bought a house in 2011 with immediate equity, and married to the girl of my dreams whom I had a crush on years before finally dating. Don’t love my job, but it pays fairly well and I’ve held it for 10 years.
There was a time before you, and there will be a time after you. Your self and all your deeds will succumb to the inevitable decay of entropy. And after you die you will likely fade quickly from the world’s memory, as will everyone you have ever cherished.
You can choose to respond with anxiousness as the comfort of denial slowly melts away, but your feelings will not change the unwavering truth. You are a creature of limits, and the clock is ticking. Instead, seek peace through acceptance.
Northern San Diego suburb. We bought our house for 250k (asking was 235k, but in the market we bought in, that would have lead to a losing bidding war) in May 2009, then we recently had our house appraised for a refinance of our loan and it came in at 340k. Now with that refi, we put on a new roof, had both bathrooms redone with custom tile shower/baths, had the house painted and few other minor updates. It would be more than fair to say it has appreciated even more since those changes, especially the bathrooms.
Age is nothing but a number. There are people in their 40s-50s would can pass for their 20s. As long as you stay off the cigerettes and go easy on the alcohol, you’re good.
I’m single and still hustling career-wise so I gotta try to pass for a young man for a little bit longer. I’d rather be considered old and wise than a kid that nobody takes seriously.
For awhile now I’ve realized that if I knew then what I know now, I’d love to go back in time to my high school years. I would have enjoyed myself much more than I did. Having said that, I recently turned 28 and still feel young. I am aware that I’m getting older, but don’t feel that way. I suppose being single helps to some extent. I tend to realize my age more so by the actions of my peers, rather than anything that I do myself (seeing friends get married, having kids, buying houses, being too whipped to hang out, etc.)
I turned 27 this year and landed a new job that is contract based and will expire in July. At this point I’m not sure if I’ll be kept on or if they will let me go. This isn’t exactly a job I’ve held for years and years, so I don’t dwell on what will happen too much. While I’m not where I imagined I’d be a couple of years ago, I do believe that things happen for a reason. The world is full of oppertunity and counting your blessings every know and than truly does help; you just have to put things in perspective…
