Learning as an adult is not harder. Consuming information is ever so slightly more challenging than when you’re a child and your brain is like a sponge but the fact is that your directed focus and ability to self teach is exponentially better as an adult, that easily trumps an unfocused teens ability to learn marginally faster. Also though at the same time adults have more responsibility so it can be more challenging.

Assuming you haven’t gone full imageboardbrain and didn’t submit all your energy to being a wagecuck your 20s is the second best time to learn. If you spend 5 years doing anything you should be pretty good at it, 10 and you can be very good even if you are a slow learner. You could easily be a master by 40. You could be by 30 or less if you truly apply yourself. The question is how much do you want it and how much in your life will stand in the way. It’s one thing to study less because you have a family to provide for, but you certainly don’t want to look back and realise you spent your time and potential shitposting on 4chan and bitching on Twitter.
