Is life basically over at 30?

There seems to be this unsaid/unwritten code in society that ages 18-30 are the absolute prime of life

For women, not men.

My life from 46-50 were the best years of my life so far. From banging 19 year-old strippers, watching 40 something women grovel for my attention to buying the 1967 Shelby Cobra Mustang that I had dechromed and de-badged and painted green, with flat black mags.

My life didn't fucking START until 30.

You are still in the beginning of your journey. You need to read more.

I'd suggest Rollo Tomassi's Rationale Male. But actually you can just as well read the main sub.

Maybe just as a thought: Who are the most dominant secretly or obviously world changing leaders? 18 y/o boys or rather 30 y/o (and older) men? Maybe just take one of the youngest most influential men you know... Mark Zuckerberg? Sergey Brin? Elon Musk? We are not even talking about Warren Buffett and Bill Gates here. How old is Trump?

Yeah, you have the script flipped. Just wait until you get some grey hair and watch how people suddenly start respecting your opinion. It's much easier to be RP when people actually do what you tell them because you have the required gravitas. I'm 49 and engaged in the greatest adventure of my life right now. And my previous adventures are pretty legendary too.

That is no excuse to wait. Be awesome now. Don't get married, then she won't get fat on you. Your bills are up to you. Don't sign up for every damned thing they try to sell you.

And by the time you are 50, bio-nano-bots will be rejuvenating aging cels at the molecular level, tons of diseases will be cured by genomic engineering, and robots will be doing all the grunt work. You may well live to be 120 in good health.

You've only just begun, young padwan.

I'm 34 and life is getting better. If you do it right you'll age like fine wine.

Others that have replied will go into much more various detail and specifics, but the short answer is

Fuck no. The 18-30 prime time fallacy IS the definition of a BLUE PILL LIE told to the masses to shame them into marrying women, buying property, paying taxes, and doing other things that help financially and emotionally support our gynocentric society, and the imperative of man turning the wheels of the machine that is the state.

For evolved and advanced red pill alphas life stays exciting well into the 50s, and then the following decades are a bit more mellow but fulfilling and relaxing, versus anxiety ridden and ornery.

I'm going to be 30 this year (holy shit) and I'm actually excited about it. Every birthday since I turned 25 was just kind of another day to me, but it's different now.

Probably has something to do with putting in tons of work to have a solid life path, stronger friendships and things like that. My mindset is that this next decade is going to be the best yet.

are you trolling. life can be over at 30, if you want it to be.

there's that quote that most men die at 25 but are buried at 75.

do you really want those things? marriage, kids etc. you don't have to do anything that you don't want.

grab life by the balls and your thirties can be awesome.

you have 3 years. work your ass off and make sure you enter the next decade of your life raring to go.

Just turned 40 and I haven't felt that decline yet. By the way...the strongest guys at my gym are all over 40. Don't listen to the BP hype.

Pitchfork51 · 2017-05-06T01:32:46+00:00

I'm 28. I see essentially no difference between me and my friends a year or two younger and my friends 2-4 years older.

The ones in shape I mean. Although weirdly in the last year all of my friends have gotten in great shape. Even the married ones. No idea what prompted it.

Girls can't tell the difference.

It's just that doing the same old same old becomes boring after awhile.

But fuck it. I still love pool parties and bars.

I still can't figure out why guys are afraid of some hypothetical future shit.
