I think the question is how much money do I need to know what is going on?
No fucking clue while being early 30s. When I was much younger, I thought my parents and adults around me knew much about the world. At my 30s I know one thing - world is fucked up and nothing can be in one’s control. All we have is to try to react properly to the world around us. Other than that, no idea what is happening and doubt anyone ever had an idea.
This is the question to the ultimate answer. The answer being “42.”
I’m 42 now but have yet to experience ultimate enlightenment.
Me everything I watch a new movie/TV/anime.
“Wtf”, “What?”, “Nani?”
Also wtf is Tenet, does anyone even know? Or is Christopher Nolan just making a whole 2 hour movie to call his audience dumb? So fucking confusing, so much action, 0 plot.
Roughly mid-thirties. Then the remorse sets in.
Incorrect. You don’t get there. EVER.
I really did start to feel like I had a better handle on things by mid 30s. Then it really sharpened in my early 40s. Not sure how clueless you might have still felt around then.
Yeah, it got better for sure.
The more I know, the less I understand tho.
The resolution of the boundaries of my knowledge has increased drastically, but I feel like there are so many unknown unknowns. To be sure it’s part of aging.
Reached mid-thirties, I’m still having no idea what the *** is going on, the longer I live, the less everything around me makes sense (and I don’t think it’s me that changes that much…).
Watching what’s going on in the US for instance, just results me in shaking my head in disbelief, without having any idea what’s going on…
It is not about age, it is about listening, and not listening to only one thing/person, but listening to anybody, not intercepting the talk, just take it in and think about why that person is saying what they saying how, don’t blame them for saying something “illogical” in your view, try to find reason in it by asking clever questions that do not insult the other person.
If you manage to do so, you can understand why what is and how it is, by talking to enough people, age is irrelevant.Trust me, you don’t wanna know what’s going on.
Come ooooon, tell us!!!
No, this is for your own good son.
Kurt Vonnegut said that one of the scariest things that every happened to him was the day he looked around and realized people he’d gone to high school with were running the world.
The goal is not knowing what’s going on, it is not caring about any of it

If true, then that which will happen to me will change.

That’s the neat part, you don’t.
Older than 60, I can confirm.
Just when you think you’re getting a grip, everything shifts.

life is absurd. So you did it, I guess …
