At what age do ye think the main personality of someone is "set"? I know people continue to change in some ways throughout their lives but for the most part I have found that the general way a person thinks and goes about things in their 30's for example is for the most part the same in their 40's. In contrast, an absolute fool at 18 often completely changes for the better (and vice versa) by the time they are 30.

I reckon it's about 27 or 28 - just based on the way the people around me have been. What do ye think?
