A small but growing movement of millennials are seeking out a more agrarian life but the reality of life on the land is not always as simple as they hoped
You are correct, but my point still stands, neither 30 or 42 is what most people think of when they hear “young” - unless they’re retirement age i suppose lol
It would help if people actually even opened the article before fighting about it. I’m considering not allowing pedantry that distracts from real discussion here. Look how terribly it has drowned out everything else, and nobody has even looked at the article.
30 is young to about 2/3rds of the people on the planet. 40 is pushing it. I’m in my 40’s and still get called young by older people, but I’m like “I’m old, not young, you’re just very old” lol. Anyways, to your point, I’d consider 30 to be the cutoff for the young moniker, but it’s different for everyone, based on their age.
I’m not trying to argue with you, just conveying the message that someone’s definition of young changes as they get older. I don’t think there’s a general consensus as to what qualifies someone as “young”, or if there is then I’m unaware of it. It’s going to depend on who the audience is. Right?
The word is interpreted differently by different people. Just because you think 30 is old doesn’t mean others do.

There are no 50 year old millennials. The oldest millennial is 42.

30 is younger than 2/3 of the planet, that doesn’t make them “young” lol
But now we’re just arguing in circles over semantics anyways
I concede that I’m being a bit pedantic. :)

Sorry if I’m kicking a dead dog. Eek!
