30 is the new 20.

I had a talk with a friend the other day about how 50 year olds used to be old. They just don’t look or feel that way now a days

I sometimes think this, but then I wonder if it's just because I too got older.

You can look at old movies.

George Costanza is thirty in season one of Seinfeld. He could easily go for mid 40s.

A lot of that is because your image of 50 year olds is dated to what they were like when you were younger.
