For anyone who’s ever panicked about turning 30 —here are the things you don’t have to have by 30.
1 . A spouse—or even someone you want to go on a second date
with .
2 . A child. Or a pet. Or even an herb garden .
3 . A decision on how you feel about having children. Yes, I know—Mother Nature has a say in this one, but if we’re going to put a timeline on it, can it at least be 34 ½?
4 . A house (or enough money in your bank account to even think about having a down payment) .
5 . An answer to, “Where do you see yourself in five years?” Be honest: At 25, did you see yourself here?
6 .The ability to handle a crisis without a crying phone call to your mother .
7 . Eye cream. Because that’s just throwing in the towel .
8 . Giving up on the belief that maybe—just maybe—you could win the lottery someday .
9 . The words “I’m too old for that” in your vocabulary .
10 . A house (or enough money in your bank account to even think about having a down payment .
AGE IS JUST A NUMBER :)
