I’m 42. Does everyone get a pill? My wife? My kids? My parents?
Jumping back 20 years puts me out of sync with everyone I care about. I’m not sure I’d even want it.
That’s a good point. You kinda lose your kids once you take the pill. On the flip side though, who’s putting who in the nursing home now?
42

I’d take it today. I’m in my 50s, I’m an endurance athlete (I race bikes) and the calculus looks like: if I wait 20 years I get to experience body-age 50-70 twice, but if I take it now I experience 30-50 twice. Living my prime twice is better than enduring my decline twice, thanks
50s. Getting back to one’s 30s you’re still old enough for people to take you seriously, but the creaking bones and exhaustion hasn’t really started creeping in yet.

Uhhh about that
Start doing morning stretches, drink more water, and avoid caffeine after 5pm
“Avoid caffeine after 5pm”

Well, just saying, what creaking bones I had in my 30s don’t even rate in comparison now
Ugh I turn 30 today, I’ve had a bum knee for like 15 years and now the arthritis is starting in my thumbs 🙄
I’m tempted to say 40, so I can relive the most physically fit part of my life, but maybe I should wait until I’m really old. Not sure
Yeah stick with 40. What are you gonna do, be like “yeah it feels great being only 50 years again! Glad I passed up having a second twenties.” If you heard someone say that you’d think they were insane.
True, but I was a doofus in my twenties. I suppose it depends if we get to keep our collected wisdom/lack of fucks or not
I’d take it right now.
I’m not married, not dating, and have no kids.
Getting 20 years back means I can correct a lot of mistakes and I’ll have way more energy and focus to be the me I want to be. My 20s were so stressful I started getting white hair.
It just de ages you, you’d still be married I guess lol
