Turning 30

[Ciro_DiMarzio]

Happy birthday mate, try to see the positives

One year closer to being able to dip my ball sack into the toilet water.

30! Get your will written now mate before it's too late, not many years left now you know.

You joke marra but you never know what's around the corner

Nothing changes when you turn 30. The only obvious change in my life was when I got a full time job for the first time. It’s all down hill from there.

I was joking but I got my will written for the first time last week and some of the pitfall that happen to people who die without having a will is astonishing.

Aye scary thought leaving family behind to try and sort it all out if nowt is written down. Especially if you've got bairns.

I've always grafted or done a combination of studying full time + a 25/30 hour a week job and I agree

Would retire tomorrow if I could

Had a great 30s! The social aspect was better than my 20s. Better circle of friends, and more cemented interests.
Now 41 and ageing like a fine wine! Who knows what this decade has in store but I’m enjoying it so far!

Have to say turning 30 is the only birthday I've struggled with. Not sure why, perhaps I felt like I needed to grow up instead of being carefree but in reality nothing changes due to an arbitrary day.
Never struggled with 40 or 50 and losing a cousin and close friend in their 30s and early 40s made me realise aging is a privilege.

A very good perspective

I agree with you in sentiment, but I turned 30 on the Thursday, got an offer accepted on my first house on the Friday, got married on the Saturday and knocked her up on Sunday afternoon, so for some people everything does change.

 

[Cult of Personality]

30 is fuck all man, you’ll still be in your prime, wait till you get to 45 staying in is better than going out, sometimes the highlight of the day is going to bed to watch the telly

I’m 31 and this is me now..

Thats a speedrun and a half that

I’m 37 and feel no different to when I was 20.

 

[Charmless Man]

I’m 33, and feel no different to when I was 25/26.

Yep. Early 30s is much of a muchness with your late 20s for me.

That turning point was where I started preferring a daytime drinking session to being out late.

 

[Dash riprock]

Morning SMB,

I turn 30 soon and keep getting asked if I feel old. Do you feel like age 30 was a major turning point in your life? What do you miss about your 20s? Any advice for "getting old?"

You'll be fine till youre about 38; then you'll start to notice.
30s were no different to 20s for me , all graft and bairns

I've been like that since I was 18 tbf. I put it down to football, always out every Saturday without fail at midday, stay out after the game until you're finished.

Easy enough if he’s Craig David.

 

[alanturing]

I’ve turned 30 twice.
The first time in 1989 and the second time in 2019.

Have I stumbled into the kids forum?

I'm 60 this year, planning an all dayer for next saturday. Not much has changed in 30 years. Don't worry about it.

 

[Silly Point]

Always been old at heart anyway so never bothered me.
