Generally you're too old to start anything new when you're dead.
Don't compare yourself to other people. There's always someone older and someone younger, so worrying about it is a waste of energy that can be better spent on working to improve your own stuff.
Although I do get the feeling. I started acting when I was 24, which is considered late, especially for women. Hahahahaha.
32, according to the Royal Navy.
'All he needs is for somebody to throw handgrenades at him for the rest of his life...'I have no intention of joining the Navy.
I suppose you are right but it is easier said then done. I will try to focus on my own stuff.
I am glad somebody gets me.
"We are just like Irregular Data. And that applies to you too, Ri CO. And as for you, Player... your job is to correct Irregular Data."Hi, Auld Phart here. My rule of thumb is that I don't refuse to start anything because I'll be "too old" when I'm done. I'll be just as old in that same time if I don't. "It'll take me four years to get that degree — I'll be 61!". Yeah, well, in four years I'll be 61 whether I have the degree or not
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.GAP: It would depend on the context of your life. If you think you can handle those kinds of changes and challenges then you are likely not too old. If you honestly feel it is truly beyond your abilities well there is always something different to try or do. I didn't get to start my current career until well into my mid 20's, which is a bit of a late start by most standards.

Who watches the watchmen?As Jim Rohn said "Life doesn't get better by chance, it get's better by change". This is also my answer
My twin brother's a medical student. He'll finally be out of residency and able to practice on his own when he's 40.
One of my best friends left her job as an EMT to become an engineering professor at age 53.
My daughter's grandpa has always loved art, and his second career as an artist started at age 65.
I had never thought of that. The real world is much more complex than I thought.

Never too old.
Hell, look at Diamond Dallas Page. One of the most beloved wrestlers and health/fitness instructors in the world (the amount of people's lifes he's turned around is incredible) didn't have his first wrestling match until 35 - very late in the game for one of the most intense things you can put your body through.
"Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it. Don't wait for it. Just let it happen."You're never too old for anything, except maybe "child star".
That said, it's a great easy-out of something you really have no interest in.
Current WHABP alts: Jani (Sarah) the Purrloin, Hudson the Togetic. Tilly/Lilly (Digletts) are being Put on a Bus.This may tie into the whole thing about "you are never too old to do anything" lesson that you guys mentioned but there were some things that I wanted to do but due to "happenstances" I missed them and I wanted to go back to it. What should I do? I know fads and ideas change with time but I wanted do some stuff but I never got a chance do them and I want to make up for "lost" time. Also, how do I deal with people who are more knowledgeable than you are and they are younger than you?
"We are just like Irregular Data. And that applies to you too, Ri CO. And as for you, Player... your job is to correct Irregular Data."Depends. If you are winning a youngest person contest, 3 might be too old. If you are retiring, maybe 123 years.
How do I get rid of the feeling that is too late for me to do things out of my system?
"We are just like Irregular Data. And that applies to you too, Ri CO. And as for you, Player... your job is to correct Irregular Data."I would say, "Do the things you need to get out of your system!" Assuming the things you are going to get out of your system is not illegal.
You are right. I had been meaning to do things and I am still relatively young. I also plan to go back to school....I just wish I did it sooner.
"We are just like Irregular Data. And that applies to you too, Ri CO. And as for you, Player... your job is to correct Irregular Data."Well, There is no "too old" for me! Im 665 Years old cause i told death im busY!
Molly found a dead body.This song runs me the wrong way.

So fucking what if you’re getting older!? What pisses me off about this sort of stuff is that just because you have responsibilities and stuff doesn’t mean your life’s practically over! There’s more to living than bills, debt, and having a job, but some people just can’t see it.
Perhaps I’m wrong and this is satire, but it just comes off as more depressing than funny to me. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, in their right mind wants to be depressed. I know, because I was there.
Maybe you are right. I learned that your best days are not behind you and you can make new best days. I am not sure if that is true but I want to believe it.
"We are just like Irregular Data. And that applies to you too, Ri CO. And as for you, Player... your job is to correct Irregular Data."99. After that there's no point in living, you can't play with Legos anymore
Some call it stalking, I say walking just extremely close behindDepending on what career you are persuing. Sophisticated and professional career seems to have lax restriction regarding age but some career such as cashier or receptionist do seems to have age limits.
Does that mean I don't get the job?On the other hand, I wouldn't waste any time, either. If you can do it now, do it now.
What about careers where you are too old to get into? Like someone as old as 70 trying to do a physical job.
"We are just like Irregular Data. And that applies to you too, Ri CO. And as for you, Player... your job is to correct Irregular Data."
This has been on mind for quite sometime now but how is too old enjoy things or even start a career? I had seen some projects started off by people much younger than me and it makes me feel like an old guy knowing that. I really wish that I attempted those things when I was younger but I wonder how old is too old to start and finish a career?
