How accurate are people when they try to guess your age?

The idea that it is generally hard to pin down someone's age when they're almost certainly between 25 and 40 has come up a few times at work. Then of course it becomes kind of a fun thing to do the whole "how old do you think I am?" game (obviously I would never just walk up to someone ask).

I'm 32, but I always get mid-20s. I think it's because I still can't grow a full beard. I have decent amount of grey hair, but I keep it short for most of the year so I guess it isn't noticeable. When I do grow it out it's during the winter so I usually have a stocking cap on.

I always figured I looked my age or older because I go through periods of very heavy drinking, but now I'm wondering if people just think I look sick or have aids. If I can find it I'll post a picture of a driver's license photo from about 7 years ago taken when I was several months into about a year long binge. I looked like shit.

people usually think i'm about 10 years younger than I actually am. I guess that's a good thing.

Never been asked.

At a wild guess, they would probably say late 40's, when in reality, it is 38.
