But if we’re talking general life stuff like bills, rent/mortgage, juggling work, relationships, and maybe raising kids, I’d say people usually start gaining that kind of experience properly in their late 20s to mid-30s.

That’s when life tends to stop playing on easy mode (if it ever was), and responsibilities stack up. But even then, it’s not about age as much as it is what you’ve had to handle. Some 50-year-olds haven’t had to face half the sh*t a 25-year-old might’ve gone through. So yeah—age helps, but it’s not the whole story. Life experience is more about what’s hit you and how you’ve had to respond.
…I think that Glenn said it perfectly in that it’s less about an age and more, the life experience that’s been had in some areas of life …but then those specifics might in some way, prevent them from life experiences in other areas…for instance losing parents/raising siblings and supporting families from teenage years, as he mentioned…?…that could prevent from travelling experiences …?…because ‘life’ in its experience and what we gain from it has so many learning dimensions …


…at what age is someone truly experienced in general life terms …?…probably, on their death…/…that’s when all sides possible for their own life have been experienced…and even then, those all sides won’t be the same as others so are limited to each of us…
