What age
At what age are you really concerned OLD? I use to think 50"s were old but since I have got to the 50's I don't think it is so old anymore.

What age
I asked my dad one time when does a person grow old.
My dad was always reading and improving himself. He was reading two different books when he died.
He replied to me...." A man does not grow old.....it is when he stops growing that he becomes old".
So there you have it ......age has nothing to do with "old" I know a lot of young "old" people.

When you stop seeking wisdom and understanding when you stop learning you become old. When your spirit turns 70 or 80 then you are OLD !
You cannot effectively love and minister to others when you are obsessed with protecting
and preserving yourself.
and preserving yourself.

I was told
I was told that "old" always seems to be 15 years older than your current age, whatever it may be.

About 10 years ago I would have told you 26 makes you officially old. Then I moved it to 30. Now that I am 32... I am thinking 40. LOL! I am sure when I hit 40 I would love to come back to 32 but will consider 50 old. There is no answer to the question. Just like licks to the center of a tootsie pop. It all depends on how hard you lick it or how big your tongue is. There is just no answer. Everyone is different.

I am 26, so this is definitely not old!

Let the wild rumpus start!
I think you get old when you lose your curiosity. I've met a lot of people in their 20s and 30s who are "old" and a lot of 60s, 70s and up who are young. I will be 65 real soon and am thinking of going from part-time work to full-time work as soon as I turn 66 because I will not have any restrictions on how much I am allowed to earn, which I currently have since I am getting a widow's pension.
