It's the other way round for me. When I was young, I thought old people had nothing figured out. Now, though I'm not that old but I think young people need to figure out much more.
Maybe it was because when I was young, I tried to have a go at things in spite of being a noob at many and being told not to 'experiment'.
Now, when I see my children with the same train of thoughts, I remember those days and let them have theirs.
I agree with PG > "the more of a noob you are locally, the less of a noob you are globally." And I kind of feel OK being a noob in a new place. Gives me the opportunity to explore without inhibitions.
