2020 is an odd year!

Apart from everything else going on this year, if you add your age (that you will be this year) and the year of your birth it will total 2020! It works for everyone apparently.

Spooky!

It would be difficult to think of anyone for whom this would not work!

Re: 2020 is an odd year!

Mine also works out like that as do all of my family, as far as I know when their birthdays are.

Very creepy indeed!

I wonder who first realised that one?

Although having thought about it, isn't that the way to ascertain a person's date of birth anyway, deduct their age from the present year? Or working it another way, their date of birth deducted from the current year will give their age! Maths never was my best subject at school though!

.... some mathematical genius with a surefire way of working out what year it is. .... but it helps if you know how old you are, and you can remember which year you were born.
