Iron. No, bronze.
Mid twenties.
Young enough to do whatever I want but old enough to be taken seriously.
Anywhere between 28-32. Old enough that people take you mostly seriously but young enough that the world still feels like it’s set up with you specifically in mind.
I’m gonna turn 28 in 2 weeks. Any wise words to make the best of the next 4 years?
Get a solid workout routine and make sure to stick with it. Whatever you want your goals to be, start now if you haven’t yet. Don’t put off taking care of your health.
I’m in that age range and I’m still called a “child” or “youngling” at times tbh
25, maybe 30.
Your brain doesn’t finish developing until around that point, and it’s the part that helps you control your thoughts and emotions (prefrontal cortex). There are no other advantages after 30, though, and the development been 25 and 30 isn’t as vast as 18 to 25.
That said, I’ve been blessed with a middle aged 40 year old body since I was 12, so meh. (And really, I should have been given “most likely to do his taxes on time” title in the yearbook.)

Are we min/maxing our answers? Lol
Anything between 28 and 32 sounds fine.
- I was still healthy, but left blessedly alone.
I’d say around 25. I’m still fit and perfectly healthy at 33 but I’m not getting any healhier from this on.
26 or 27. That’s when I fully cooled down, so seems my brain finally finished baking then
Damn I didn’t cool down until last week and I’m 41. I wish I could have been sane when I was in my twenties.
I’d say probably 22-24. I’d prefer a little older for sure, but at age 25-26 a disease I didn’t know I had got much much worse and has effectively robbed me of half my life. So a little younger for me.
Probably early 30s, like 30-34. Relatively young but not too young, and my knees didn’t crack as much as they do now. lol
- I had a lot of growing to do before then, but at that point I felt like I had become a person I wanted to be. I actually had got back to school, so I was around a community of learners, and I felt like I was still on top of my job. I feel like I mulliganed my early 30s to the pandemic.
Team 28 checking in, it was a very good year.
I think I would choose 30, but I’d like to do my 20s differently. Lifestyle creep is real. I notice my younger coworkers also make the mistake of spending way too freely. I’d also get married earlier. And take bigger risks earlier.
probably 18. Free enough to do whatever I want but young enough that society doesn’t expect any responsibilities from me.
I liked being 16. Mature enough to design grand plans. Naive enough to actually try them.
Plus the greatest adversary I face for the rest of my life would just be standardized testing :P
