17 Things This TikToker Wished He’d Known Before Turning 30

They say you are never too old to learn. Even when you are 70+ years old and think you’ve seen and heard it all, it’s doubtful. Remember, there is no shame in not knowing. Not even the most intelligent people in the world know everything. Simply because life is far too complex to have all the answers. Don’t stress it, and learn as you go. If not from your own mistakes, then learn from the slip-ups of others who kindly pass their precious wisdom to the peeps online.

And one of them is TikToker Sidneyraz . You have likely stumbled upon at least one of his TikToks on your For You page. On his page, with over 2.7M followers, he is “telling you things I didn’t know before I was in my 30s.” While some discoveries can be pretty obvious to some people, many of the tricks he unravels could come in handy in everyday situations. Or perhaps solve some of the daily struggles you thought had no other solution than to just bear with it. Have you ever wondered why the center of your plate never heats up as much as the food along the rims does? Sidneyraz might have unveiled a reason for that too…
