It is interesting as the later I get into my 50s, I start thinking more and more how I should never listen to what people over 50 say.

Life is non-ergodic and the older you get the more you are over fit to a time that no longer exists.

At least youthful ignorance has a chance of actually being right. There is a pseudo-wisdom that comes with age that is almost always wrong going forward.

This may be an artifact of our current times, which change so quickly that the wisdom older people accumulated through their life experiences may no longer be applicable to the current reality. But, throught history, older people often really were treasure troves of wisdom.
