Experience and good instincts/personal qualities go hand in hand, in my opinion. Experience comes from observing what works and what not - it's not necessarily a matter of age. If you keep your eyes and mind open, you'll raise experience faster. Don't do the same mistake twice.

And - don't forget to have fun.

In an investment gathering in November I was congratulated for helping others. That felt good. Experience is making note of such things and letting it affect our behaviour (in the same gathering, I made a not-so good pitch. learning from that, too. :)
