So guys n girls what would you say is the perfect age to enjoy life. I'd say 30's, pretty settled, earning decent cash, no teen angst or hang ups. What age did you find yourself and become comfortable being you ? |

"Good wages at 30? Good wages are few and far between these days, especially in the public and private sectors."
Indeed. Good wage these days is far from being associated with age.
The "perfect" age is pretty much when shit is at its lowest point for you. |

I'm still laughing at decent wage.
For me, I can't see that I'll ever be "comfortable" so the best time is when you accept your lot and realise you have to make the most of whatever your lot is

Id agree.
Work/pay wise im where i want to be & doing what i want to & very happy in my job.
Im at the point where im most happy/confident with my body.
My work life balance is good.
Ive moved/build/sold houses to live where i want to be and in the house i want to be in.
Ive learnt sticks and stones..
I know and accept whats truly important in life and whats not

I’m very happy with my life now, so much more than in my twenties and thirties.
Happily single, four wonderful children and two grandsons who I adore.
Redundancy is on the horizon for me but even that doesn’t worry me I’ll always try to change a negative into a positive |

I can only speak for myself but by 34 I'd done my degree, had a cpl of jobs for experience and started to earn what I'd call decent money. Nurrrr |

Well done.
Had I followed my heart and not done as I was told I had to do to continue living at home at age 18 then I dare say I'd be pretty sorted financially provided I stuck with my choice and didn't flake out.
Unfortunately my mum decided she I had to take a job in a petrol garage as a cashier on minimum wage so I could pay her board for the food she didn't cook and the electeic I barely used instead of accepting the offer I was given to enrol on an embalming course and have a well paid job for life.
Those are the breaks hey.

I'm not asking or expecting you to! I was saying good for you and giving a snippet of my own life. Nobody has to justify anything, I was simply saying how different my life could have been is all. I wouldn't have had my son, as I met his dad whilst I worked at the petrol garage. Swings n roundabouts ain't it.

I think it's really important to try to enjoy every moment of your life, I've had many different times in my life where I've had no cash to splurge on anything. I've always found a way to enjoy my situation. I think it's always really important to do your best to focus and improve the situation you are in and find happiness and joy in every day.
Life is very fleeting and you never know what's round the corner, I try to enjoy every bit of it that I can.
I can't point out a significantly happier it more trying period as I really have tried to always enjoy each day. |

Could you do it as a mature student? Any grants you could apply for? |

Round about now. I'm 40, and quite comfortable on the line where relative youth and relative maturity currently blend. I'm comfortable in most areas, and have probably more freedom than most. |

Well it's been a hell of a life. I am a great point in my life in terms of personal awareness and feeling totally comfortable in my own skin. I earn well and have accumulated wealth and have great provisions for the future. Unfortunately the family life of a single parent with young kids, projects and work commitments gets in the way of many of the adventures I could have. But Im massively confident of the future. I'm 35 now (and healthy) and project far more freedom in my 50s as the kids grow up. So I'm going to predict late 40s/early 50s will be a golden time for me and my partner. |

I had a family and so until they were well and truly baked I wasn't settled. I'd say about mid fifties |
