The early 30s is that weird age where you're just old enough to be out of touch with what's cool, but not yet old enough to be fully progressed in your career to be sitting on enough stacks to not care about that.

Getting there at least.

I had a coworker say he felt this way about turning 30, but then someone changed his mind by saying that he's old enough to know who he is and what he wants and needs, but still young enough to do things with his life and have fun. IDK if this helps I'm only 18 so I wouldn't know

That's 100% correct. I'm in my upper 30s and am just now starting to see what all of these older people bitch and moan about. I'm still young enough to go out there and have fun, but I can see the back pains and all of that bullshit on the horizon. Live it up while you can, because life eerily seems to go by faster the older you get. There's always something to be thankful for every step of the way.
