I'm not sure it's ever too late to learn anything. Unless you are dead.
But I do wish I'd been able to feel ok about my body as a teenager, the anorexia was harmful to my bones & heart, so I guess technically I learned too late to value my body, or learned it too late to avoid damage anyway, though I'm pretty healthy overall now. I think almost all teenagers are uncomfortable with their looks in some way, at least they were back then.
I have elderly family that seem miserable because they never bother to learn or achieve anything since they are "too old" for it to matter.
They assume retirement is just lounging around all day until you die. They don't pursue hobbies, read books and are not very active since it "doesn't matter" .

Being a good person is a weakness in capitalist civilizations.
Its a super power, actually. Everytime I meet one they impact my life so deeply I can't help but admire them and completely swoon.

I donβt feel too late to learn anything so far.
No matter how hard you try, how loud you cry, some people will never change.
Double entry bookkeeping.
Who was committing fraud?
Not all rich people are smart, and not all smart people are rich. Seems kind of obvious to me now, but it took me a long time to comprehend this.
That property has more rights and protections than people do.
The value of human life, in reality, is much lower than I thought it would be.
Laws and rights are only as good as the people & mechanisms that enforce them. A piece of paper doesn't protect you, people do.
That people often prefer a comforting delusion over the truth, even if it hurts them in the long run.
That in spite of doing my best to care for their mother as she slipped into the madness of depression and alzheimers before dieing last year, that they care about my sacrifice because no one other than me or my brother cared enough about her to help with her care(we did the best we could I know it wasnt enough but at least we were there for her)
But they get to keep her money after kicking us out of the house and selling everything she had so thats cool right?
