Coin Talk Age Census: Please Vote

My next door apt. neighbor is 99 soon to be 100 yrs. young. She still does NY Times crossword puzzles and keeps up on politics.
There is also a 100 year young lady here that can carry on a conversation about any subject. Looks and speaks and walks like 80 yrs.
Don't sell us fogies short you whippersnappers.:thumb:

looks like a pretty nice age distribution to me.
My sterotypical thought would have had everyone over 50

 

Just threw my entry in. I'm 29. I thought this was the same poll that was done a couple months ago that I had already entered. Maybe it should be a sticky so there won't be another one two months from now?

For a site that supposedly has 20,000 members, you would think there would be more than 165 entries. Where is everybody? Lets get this poll cranked up.

 

If there is anybody more than 100, just vote in the 91-100 range.

 

Or less than a year old, vote in the 1-10 range.

 

Surprising poll!! I didn't expect to see so many younger coin nerds!!
Woohoo for coin nerds!!

 

Will be 74 on Feb 7th. On those chronological versus biological age test, I average around 57. Probably a combination of genetics and having to pass the Army PT test every year until I was 60.

 

I agree with Doug in that computer-minded coin collectors will tend to be younger as they tend to be more a product of the "computer age"

 

That is true and the under 40 set is probably going to me more active on the internet. But still it is good to see.

 

34 here, going to be 35 before too long

 

I'm 29. I got my wife interested in the hobby, and she's 30. Also getting my kids into it and they're 12, 10 & 8.

 

I wrote a long response also until I realized that several of my early computer and telephone activities might still be under statue of limitations, so I deleted it. So let me just say don't underestimate the elderly, just keep a job so we can keep our SS!:mouth:

That's right kids, keep working I want my money back also. :smile

BTW, it was our generation that created that computer thingey:whistle:
I didn't start working with PC's on a daily basis until 1981.

 

Can we at least make it to 200???

 

Hey, I see Doug finally voted in a poll! 91-100... Although I have met Doug, and I dont think he looks a day over 90.. Your holding up pretty good old man! LOL

 

Desertgem and Pennyguy.. You two remember the old punch cards? Or how about the Timex Sinclairs! WOO HOO.. VIC's.

Shoot I have a SCSI hard drive here that weighs about 90 pounds. Platters are 14".. Ahhh, the old days.. Fire up the computer, takes days to boot and sounds like a lear is right in the room with ya...

 

Why? Too Young?
