97% of Buffett’s wealth was acquired after the age of 60, and 99% of it was earned after 50.

I don't know if you took the time to read about Buffett's life, but I guess you missed one thing: he made his first million dollars at age 32 and his company was valued at $7 million in 1962. And if we compare with current inflation then 1 million dollars is a huge amount and he was a rich man at that time. It can be said that he was successful at a young age while how many of us have made 1 million dollars by the time we were 30?

So don't compare yourself to them or anyone because we are not the same, and don't think that 30 years old is still too young and we can procrastinate or be lazy. Not to mention, we may have a lot of time left, but our parents and grandparents are not young anymore and they don't have as much time as we do.
