Well, I think that from 40 on, we all go downhill, not just you ! I would say that at 30 to 35 you are in your peak.
As for your question; Healthy ? probably 80%.
Wealthy? Comfortably. Wise ? I don't think that I am as wise as I would like to be, but wisdom comes with age they say, ask me in 10 years time!

I am healthy, probably because I spend my days with my younger grandchildren, I able to support my wife and myself on my work pension which is enough to live on and still have some left over at the end of the month, and wise enough to retire at age 55, so I can enjoy other things in life besides working 24/7. So I would say yes to your question.

I started to feel wise around age 60. It was a nice feeling, since I felt like a babe in the woods most of my life. But I'm not wealthy. And my health is not great. I have lots of physical problems - bad knees, bad feet, shoulder, neck, you name it. The knees started to go when I was in my 30s, so I can't entirely chalk it up to age. I just have more things that hurt now.
To the person who said she lived a clean life - so did I. Always ate right, exercised, etc. Sometimes health problems are beyond our control, no matter how healthy a life we lead.

Well, I'm definately healthy and somewhat wise....not so wealthy....probably because I chose to work in an Assisted Living facility caring for the elderly. This is a profession that is rewarded with a lot of "atta girls" and not too much money.

Moderately healthy [Diabetes II controlled] ; wealthy in friends and family and gratitude; and am called wise, but find I have a deep need and joy of learning new things daily and discovering how to do old things better!

I'm not so healthy any more, and I'm not so wealthy, but I'm a whole lot smarter. The wise that applies to me is just half a word. . .

I consider myself healthy for a person of my age, I always mark that up to my "clean country living". Wealthy, well not monetarily speaking, but my family and friends make me the richest person in the world. And, through trial & error, the years have given me the wisdom to survive and be happy.

Fairly healthy, far from wealthy if you mean material things, I thought I was wise but hubby isn't so sure of that in me. LOL!
