Until about age 50, most people are better off investing most of their disposable time into their work skills/career instead of into investing.

That was not true for Buffett and I think it is not going to be true for anyone who is a good investor. If a person is interested in investing and is good at it, they should put their time there as early as possible. Compounding is real and if you have great returns early, compounding is supercharged.

On the other hand, if person is not a good investor or they don't like investing, then they should not spend disposable time on investing even if they are over 50. They should find a good fund or investment manager and let them do the work.
