I'm all of these. 20075 days . 661 months. 55 yrs. I kinda like the being 20075 days old. Sounds Ancient. The minutes and hours in the millions so I don't understand what calculation they were using that somehow made them younger. MATH IS MATH NO MATTER WHAT COUNTRY LANGUAGE OR CULTURE UR PART OF .
You're not getting any younger no matter how many numbers you knock off your age.
Facepalm…. Sigh.
Ok! How delusional, the year you born doesn’t change just because some law came into place that says you can be 2-3 younger. You still have been on earth for as long as you have.
This could be the stupidest thing on the planet.
I wish this report also came with an explanation of how they used to figure their age and what 'international' birth dates mean? 🤷♀️
There should have been a brief explanation of how their age calculation is different. Google here I come…
That first hot mamma that can strutting though? Yea that one, Well, I'll take 3 of her Do they accept American Express?
Funny that they didn't interview old people who are close to retirement
what a silly method….. "I can still drink" that guy is hilarious
With COVID-19, everyone should be 2-3 years younger
makes immediate plans to move to South Korea
See that America, if South Korea can convert to an international unit of measurement, so can we. lol
Personally I like Korea and most Asian countries. They're certainly better than the US
