Many people in their 20s dread finishing their third decade of life, but is being in your thirties really so bad? You’ve likely landed a stable job at that point, and you might have some decent savings. Plus, your body is still in excellent shape. No back pain yet! …Right?

We type the number into our phones once, and never do it again. Of course we don't learn them. If the convenience of phones that can save numbers disappeared, most of us would learn the numbers we used the most. The wandering teachers of many cultures, who carried their people's history in their memories, are sitting in their version of the afterlife, shaking their heads at us.

As bad as it can be, I can now buy anything I wanted to buy before without my mom telling me no. I can go out and be out as late as I want. Watch TV as long as I want. Be on the computer as long as I want. Eat what I want and not have to ask permission to bring guests over. Work can suck. So can school. At least I have no homework and if I'm getting mistreated I can quit. Can't do that when you're enrolled in school. I just don't find it that bad, imho.

Vacations are like hope. There's no place for either come the Monday morning back-to-work routine.
Many people romanticize being in their twenties. Finally, you’re old enough to make decisions for yourself and you’re likely out living on your own, but you’re still young enough to not have too many responsibilities. Lots of us who have plans to get married and have children aren’t quite there yet, so we spend the decade exploring ourselves and doing all of the things we won’t have the chance to do ten years later. Our thirties, however, often get a bad rap. Many people have a crisis around the time of their 30th birthday and dramatize their age, as if they suddenly can’t do anything fun when they’re no longer 29.
Of course, being in our thirties can be absolutely wonderful, and age is but a number. But if you’re among the millennials who realized that suddenly you couldn’t stay up past 11pm anymore and back pain has become a regular occurrence, Thirty Something Probs is the perfect place for you. You’re definitely not old yet, but you’re not quite as young as you used to be…

LOL Same. I actually expect to continue working in old age. I hear it makes you live longer. The government doesn't want you to think like that. The gov. expects people to retire between 65 - 68. Not before, though, or they'll cut your pension (in Canada they do). Then you're paid peanuts and the older you get the less and less you get from your pension because the gov. doesn't anticipate you'll live for too much longer. That's how my Dad explained it to me.

Millennials certainly have not had it easy when it comes to the state of the economy and the pressure from older generations who don’t understand how times have changed. They’ve been berated for buying brunch and judged for not being able to afford homes far too many times. In fact, The Washington Post has even deemed them the “unluckiest generation in US history,” as they were never able to recover from the Great Recession before the pandemic hit the world harder than anyone could have ever imagined. So if you’re part of this generation that’s been beaten down time and time again, please understand that it’s not your fault. And if looking at funny memes helps soften the blow, be our guest!
“If people enter the labor force during a recession, and they get into lower-paying jobs, that carries forward for much of their lifelong working careers,” Ana Kent, a policy analyst at the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, told The Washington Post. “That’s going to have impacts on not only their income but their wealth and also their ability to save for a down payment and their ability to meet other lifetime goals.” Millennials are also getting married later and having children later than previous generations, due to the fact that they haven’t had the opportunity to save up financially. And contrary to what Boomers may believe, millennials do tend to spend within their means (something else they’re often criticized for: not contributing enough to the economy).

As much as we can joke about the struggles of being a thirty-something, it’s important to note that being in your thirties can actually be the best time of your life. In fact, Anna Brech wrote a piece for Flash Pack breaking down the best parts of your fourth decade of life, noting that this is the time where most people start to finally “hit their stride” financially. Yes, you probably still have student loans, and you might not own a house yet. But you probably also have a steady, stable income that allows you to pay rent every month without wondering how you’ll afford groceries. Even if your desk job bores you to no end, it likely pays pretty well.

Brech goes on to note that most of us stop caring so much in our thirties. “Not invited to a pal’s wedding? Shrug and move on. Can’t recall the details of a raucous night out? Hey, we’ve all been there,” she writes. “Life’s too short for beer fear, anyway. All that wondering and worrying about what people think – and who said what when – loses its edge in your 30s. You come to understand that people’s reactions and responses are rarely to do with you and almost always down to whatever is going on in their own lives.”

I think there's generalizations for sure, but it is harder to afford important things now for the average person. We are in one of the worst recessions since The Great Depression.

Same here. I am 56 (January 3rd) and I can look like I am in my 40s with some of my gray hair, and in my 30s with my hair dyed black. When I was younger, people would think I was older. And now that I am older, people think I am younger. When I was 19, people were correct at guessing my age. It is due to NOT smoking and rarely drinking alcohol (Christmas, New Year's Eve, and my birthday).
According to Brech, many of us develop a new sense of resilience by the time we make it to our thirties as well. Our twenties are often filled with challenges that we have to face for the first time, but once we make it out of that decade, we’ve become pros at adulting. We know how to handle our next breakup, the next time a friendship ends, our next move and our next career change because we’ve finally been through it all before. “However bad these events feel at the time, deep down you know you can handle it,” Brech writes. “And you also become more adept at brushing off the smaller set-backs. Rather than questioning your self-worth, you merely accept that these things happen and move on.”

“Perhaps the very best thing about hitting your 30s is the ability to know yourself inside out,” Brech goes on to note. “The third decade of life brings a degree of self-awareness and understanding that is difficult to capture in previous years. Armed with a deeper knowledge of who you are and what you like, you start interrogating the choices you never even thought to question before.”

While we should all enjoy our thirties to the fullest, there might be a few things you’ll want to focus on during the decade to prepare for the rest of your life. According to Nicole at GenThirty, your thirties are actually the perfect time to start saving for retirement, if you haven’t already. In the same vein, it’s wise to pay off any debts from your twenties while you’re in your thirties, to ensure that you don’t have to worry about them a decade later, when you may have children to pay for or investments that you would rather put your money towards.

Your body also changes quite a bit between your twenties and thirties, so if you don’t already have an exercise routine and a healthy diet, now’s the time to start taking care of yourself. Of course, not all health issues are preventable, but by nurturing your body with plenty of fruits and vegetables and keeping active at least a few times a week, your body will be better prepared to fight any infections or diseases that may crop up later down the line. It’s much easier to stay in shape than to have to get in shape later!

I was taking melatonin for a few nights. The first night slept like a dream. The second night started getting some f****d up nightmares. The third night I was having a hard time staying asleep and getting up. During the day I was getting tense and snappy. By the end of the week I was shouting on the phone at people and inconsolably upset for no real reason. Did some research and you're not supposed to take melatonin every night because it does all that to you.

I got an older lady as my Uber driver once. She ended up giving me relationships advice. Wherever she is right now, I hope she's well.

No matter how bad you feel, if someone says "Hi How are you?" You always reply "Good and you?"

I was at my moms about a month ago, she had my aunt and a neighbor over, they were sitting in the dining room, i said hello and sat down to join the conversation, they were talking about meds and constipation, how hard or soft their bowels were, sat right back up to go to another room, I’m not there yet

Whoever does the above is straight on their way to burnout. Or has an eating disorder and is on the way to burning out. Might be skewed by my time working in psychiatry, but well...

I know how it 'works' but here in the USA it doesn't and is terrible and that's probably why some people don't get it.

I remember back when my wife and I slept every night with our limbs intertwined like one of those rope puzzles you see at gift shops. Now it's like, "You breathed on me around two in the morning and I couldn't get back to sleep and now I can't stand up straight."

And your coworkers hating you because you do this to them. They just wanted to come to work but instead you're selfish àss is dragging them down because you choose to spend your money on stupid shít rather than therapy.

Indeed- that s**t could bite you in the a*s. I’m pretty private with coworkers as gossip and over sharing could mess up your career

Um… I don’t know what no cap means… is that like when your forgetfulness leads you to dry out and shrivel up? Like when you leave a marker cap off? You become useless like a marker without a cap? For real my guess is it means you’re broke (like no capital). Now I shall google my way back to being in the know with slang!

Update: I was wrong but that was a fun mini rabbit hole. Wok has quite a wide variety of meanings if you’re wondering. No cap!

I heard cap = lie and no cap = truth. And that it has to do with teeth or something? Dunno I’m 43

Ha!! That’s correct with the meanings according to my googling but I don’t think it has to do with teeth. Lol. Heck, maybe it does! Who am I to say.
