I'm not too far behind Ruz here either. I'm 41 and have been doing this now for nearly 15 years. Still fun, still constantly learning. Not planning on getting a "real" job anytime soon :D
I'm 27 and I have been using max for 15 years and working on 3d games for 13 years. Next year I will have been working on video games for more than half the time I have been alive.
