everyone just assumes that I'm much younger than I actually am. I never correct them or bring up my age, simply because I feel like it doesnt matter and isn't anyones business. Am I wrong?

Lol.. not hating.. on average most people think I am at least 10 years younger than I am. But I don't hide my age and a certainly don't come on here to give myself some kind of weird props.. or to brag about it. 🙄🙄 The fact that you need to brag about it in this manner. Based on thus post I would assune people think you are younger because you might be acting like an immature person. IJS...

How is it a stupid post though??

Lol yea it's no ones business

Its not dumb. People think I'm someone around the age of 23-26, close to the traditional age of a staff. I'm far away from that age range. Idk I just don't wanna weird anyone out

I can unsubscribe. That's the beauty of technology

OP, I'm in the same boat as you. My age comes out to certain people in the normal course of conversation and everyone is shocked when they find out my age. I guess it's good to look young. I always remember wanting to look older so I can buy beer before I turned 21 lol

My age doesnt come out in conversation because im very measured when I speak to people. I dont think ill ever disclose my actual age.

I don't think there will ever be a point when I will have to.

Lmao. Don't hate

OP is probably a dude and we don't care about aging because men look better (more masculine) as they age. This ain't a humblebrag.

I bet you think you are really good looking too. Vain.

Hi tax 🐠,

I have a question for those who prep individual tax returns.

However, would it be advantageous to have him file for his own tax return (he stays with my parents and doesn't have his own proof of residency via bills). If so, can he get PTC if his income is 0?
