Experience. Age has nothing to do with wisdom. Usually, the more aged have more experience is all. I have met some wise young people and some old fools.

Experience... I know people who are older than me but lived such sheltered lives, never really left there house or made new friends or traveled and they dont know too much about life or much else. While there are people like me who are younger and have had life experiences, traveled and asked tons of questions and are pretty wise.

Experience gained thru time and personal observations. As opposed to knowledge, which is merely learned.

Both because as we age we have more experiances and the more experiances we have the more wisdom we gather. We hope
But then some have experianced alot when young abuse,drugs etc and some of them also have wisdom. Because they have experianced some thing others have not.
But i think wisdom comes from our life experiances, if we learn from our mistakes
