Is it true that wisdom comes with age? NO
There's plenty of old people that have only doubled down on their foolishness instead of getting wise.
I believe I've gained some wisdom over the years, but it's not simply because I've gotten older.
It's has more to do with introspection, reading, listening, thinking, willingness to learn, willingness to accept that you were wrong, etc.
I still consider myself a dumbass, though. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Maybe, I´ll tell you as soon as I remember. Ohh, no I remember, sure I got wiser by age and the years passing with experience. Good, or bad I have no clue since I can only judge by my wisdom in my reality. So others might not agree with my thoughts.

Experience can't come without being aged.
Wisdom has nothing to do with age.
Some 75' years old sometime can be very foolish

I def think yes. Not all old people are wise though, but from a personal perspective, I am definity wiser than myself 10 years ago.
To clarify, I don't mean intelligence, I don't think I am smarter than before, just that the way I look at things are a clearer than before.

Not really. It (wisdom) comes with overcoming sufferings IMO.

It depends and varies person to person. Sometimes age gives you wisdom sometime it gives you dullness.

You know, that chicken brand from tesco is the one that gives me chills...fuck no - hell im 53 and on my 2nd puberty.

As a once poor student I used to microwave the entire chicken.
Yep, slap it on a plate and pop it in. Set for maximum time, 45 minutes and then 15 more...
Barely fit if i got the extra large ones.
