What age are you?
Are you as smart as you were in your 20's?
At age of 20 you know everything.
At 30 you begin to doubt
At 40 you are sure and maybe you realise you are starting to learn
At 50 - will leave that answer to others - I am just young.

So glad to hear it. At least for another year or five.
I meant I am not old enough yet to comment at 50.
Are you?
You have know thoughts on answer - you just want to mock a simple woman who asks a question?
I thought my juvenile answer would suffice,
I like to think I'm smart, Just like a juvenile, but I must insist;
I'm no delinquent
I check your profile. Yes you are juvenile for another 5 years.
Do you like to argue? Your favourite number is 42 - it should be 24.
I know this is right I remember reading somewhere (sure someone will remind me)
I think you are wise beyond your years.
If that was true I died years ago. Like a lot of folk we just survived every day by working, paying the bills and putting food on the table.

Definitely wise beyond my ears. Not sure about years.
Long time since I have had a beer
Even longer a glass of wine
That make you genius.
I know kids and kids of friends. At 20 they know all and think indestructible.
Till when they are older and discover the truth.
Now I Sigh at youths laughing who will not listen when I impart this wisdom..
And teenage daughters who rebel against mothers - "I HATE YOU"
And, when older to their own daughters suddenly realise.... they have become their mothers.
Happened to me. Was scolding daughter and - shock, horror - said just what my mother said to me!!
with age comes life experience that complicates the way we look at
things...
the young are simple and naive when we get older we see life as more complicated.
Yet, actually the opposite is true.
The young do not see the risks and therefor do nothing to safeguard.
The older you get you accept the risks as part of life and you carry on living.
Thank you for your comment
I feel like 38...
You make women feel bad - you look 28
But were you smarter then?
Hamlet - "That is the question?"
"Happened to me. Was scolding daughter and - shock, horror - said just what my mother said to me!!"
Walking Greek tragedies each and every one of us.
You read my mind?
I love Greek history but not just tragedies - the history of heroes and Gods.
But my quote shakespeare - Hamlet - To be or not to be, that is the question?
I think most woman realise they grow into their mothers.
Is there not a belief that then a man meets a young pretty woman - look at her mother and see your "wife" in 20 years?
No men on here to tell me the same for them?
I Am Over 50!
True Story!.....
I have more information in my head so you may say that I'm wiser.
I've experienced more so that may make me wiser.
I've lived a long time so that may make me wiser.
But my concentration and decision making are lacking.
This is what I mean by going down the other side.
Thinking alone can tire me.
That's not true of all 60 somethings but I put my hands up and say that it is true of me.
I think I'm 16 still but things are beginning to let me down. Ugh!
I learned more as I grew older.
Then realised there was more to learn than I would ever know.
But I keep learning and changing anyway
Sorry for not answering last night. Due to storm / typhoon we lost internet connection.
Bodies have a habit of doing that - aging faster than the brain.
Life and experience teaches all. Good and bad.
I was a typical working class innocent at 17..
At 23 id become more worldy and so more street smart..
Now at 43 i don't think ive changed much since..
But i always listened to my elders for they truly are the most wise
