Which is a word for having a lot of life experience in a person?
I am trying to think of a word, other than mature, that means “to have a lot of life experience” and that would be able to describe a person with such things. In a sense, life experience is more than simply growing up and learning to live in the world. It is more like, “to be good at inter-act ing with people and “treating positive things as if it were a skill. The
word guile can mean sly intelligence. (from Google search of “define guile”). So with guile you could say that a person has plenty of guile.
I would say that person is street smart|wise..
