Coin Talk Age Census: Please Vote

Man, I hate it when I have to move up a notch when selecting my age group (32 now). I don't mind getting older, but doing that makes me feel older. The fact that I just bought a minivan last week doesn't help either, lol

Mini van? My, you're gettin' old DJ......

 

Hahah I like it a lot though. 2009 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT with a 3.8l engine & lots of storage space. Great for hauling the dogs around, or random auction purchases. More signs I'm getting old: I like the gray hairs I'm finding, I'm a Freemason & a Shriner, I'm happier to stay in with my wife on Friday nights than going out to a club, I'm really enjoying my experience learning about coin collecting!!! In all truth though, I'm 10x happier now than I was in my 20's. I spent my 20's partying pointlessly (which was a lot of fun, but not fulfilling). Now I feel like I've grown up a lot, I know who I am, finally, and like who I am, and I'm really living and enjoying every minute (except for the paying of bills!)

Back to the subject, I went to the Coinarama show today also, and saw a range of people there. The majority, I think, were young Boy Scouts. The other attendees did seem to be an older crowd. The dealers seemed to be a good mix ages to me.

 

My age group is still in the lead and as of yesterday I only have one year to stay in the 21-30 age group

 

Not trying to grave-dig threads or spam, but this is a very interesting set of data. It hasn't been touched since October, maybe newcomers would like to contribute to the poll? Seems like we've got a pretty well represented set of ages here at CT.

I voted, although my age stratum is not in the lead (probably a good thing though... lol)

 

So you voted in the 91-100 group?

 

Nah, 1-10

 

I started this year in the leading group and will end this year in the second leading age group... unless things change..
Yes it was my goal to bump this thread!

 

*BuMp*

 

I'm am 12

 

Sorry, I meant "I'm 12"

 

I did not expect my age group (21-30) to be that far ahead.

 

Relates more to forum usage than coin collecting itself. The younger generation tends to use forums at a far, far higher rate than the older generation.

 

Yes but even with that factored in I still did not expect to be that far ahead.

 

63.5 :rollling:

 

13 here.
