 Yeah, people thought my husband was "really young", to become a dad in his early 30s. But he's out there playing ⚽ with his son and nephews, and he's like, Yo... 50 is ancient. 😅 

You have to think about how fit you are likely to be... later on. If you're a parent by 25, then you might be a grandparent by 50 and a great-grandparent by 75. If you start at 35, you have to add a decade to each following generation. More, really, as children tend to adopt the reproductive habits of their parents, so you'd be a parent at 35, grandparent at 70, then probably dead. 
 You really know how to kick a guy when he's down... 😅  
 Hey, just cuz I bought Bitcoin late, doesn't mean buying it earlier wouldn't have been better. I lost out. It happens. Doesn't even have to be my fault, for it to be my situation. 🤷‍♀️ 

But I now know that everyone should pull their purchases forward, so that's what I'd recommend they do. 
 ☹️ 
 that is so true 
 I'd like to make it happen before 30 but life's whack ya know. Never really had grandparents either. I have a friend who had children very young, and they had great-great grandparents for a couple years I believe. It took me a while to get over the jealousy XD
