How long is 1.7 years?

Answer 1

17 years is long enough to:

• Complete nearly 12 years of basic education beginning at age 5
• Make lots of dumb mistakes you could regret for the rest of your life
• Marry and Stay married
• Birth and raise a child nearly to the US age of majority of 18 years old
• To watch your infant go from helpless / can't even stand, to a teen-adult standing on their own two feet
• Finish undergrad, Masters, and Ph.D and still begin your career
• Save a dollar a month for 17 year (12 a yr x 17 years) for a tiny nest egg-- saving more a month would increase the pot considerably
• Experience one or more deaths in your family
• Advance from having basic internet to having an extensive World Wide Web
• Go from local channels to Cable Television AND for-fee channels (HBO was groundbreaking when first introduced)
• Go from landline phones to Mobile phones
