30 years old

30 years old is when you start to be really old and you no longer have potential.

If you haven't gotten a degree and a career and a wife by 30, it's too late. Might as well throw in the towel. After that, nobody will want to hire you if you're doing a career change, and getting a degree while working is hard, especially if your job pays poorly. And when you're that old, your options for dating are terrible. You can either settle for a really ugly woman, someone with issues like drugs or mental health problems, or a single mom. And they've all fucked TONS of dudes already.

I'm not 30 years old, but I wonder if I'll still be in the same boat when I get to be that old. If I'm not successful by then, I might as well off myself. Otherwise, you'll just live a long life of perpetual misery. There are worse fates than death, such as being alone or poor. Long bouts of isolation and/or poverty will change you into a very ugly person, inside and out.

Once born you are bound to be saddled with all kinds of foul influences from demon-symbols, keeping your soul trapped in this pattern upon death. The only battle of any import is the struggle to understand the demonic influences shaping your perception and then to free yourself of them. It is mostly an inner battle but you will face many outward foes trying to add new demons into your mix. Interestingly, many of these demons are laughable and irreverent or otherwise humiliating to face, only those ready for a Final Showdown will be able to grasp let alone fight the inner-outer demons. Others are better off taking it slow and gaining experience points.

It is ponderous, however, that the people buy into OP's prognosis of having no potential after 30, yet fail to attain worldly success, still refuse to spend time in meditative self-reflection, reliving and untangling their pasts to expose and destroy demon-symbols. How can they expect not to be in even shittier situations shortly if they are not identifying and neutralizing demonic influences systematically right now? It boggles the bloody mind......
