Turning 30? These "By Age 30" Tweets Will Crack You Up
By Kelly CorbettPublished Aug. 5 2022, 1:31 p.m. ET
Thirty is a weird age. And growing up, you may have envisioned where you’d be in life by the time you hit the big three-oh. Maybe you thought you’d be married or have started a family by age 30. Or perhaps you thought you’d own real estate or be farther along in your career.
The good thing is that there aren't any official benchmarks you have to meet to turn 30. Your strict and nosy family members may have told you otherwise, but they are wrong. The Earth keeps spinning on its axis. Time keeps passing. And yes, you are literally older now than when you started reading this article.
You will hear a lot of advice about where you should and shouldn't be in life by age 30. None of it is factual. Some of it may be helpful, but all of it is based on someone's opinion. Don't feel pressured to hold yourself to someone else's standards.
That said, Twitter folks have started giving advice about what you should have by age 30. Some users may have based it on their real-life observations. Others may have just exaggerated it a bit.
Now keep scrolling because, by age 30, you should have read this entire article and sent it to all your friends. Haha!

these "by age 30" memes are very funny but the truth is that by age 30 you should have an animal people associate with you so when they don't know what to get you for your birthday they can default to something with the animal
