WHAT DO YOU KNOW NOW THAT YOU DIDN'T KNOW IN YOUR '20s and '30s?

JIM BROADBENT, star of "The Iron Lady" as Denis Thatcher and Bridget Jones' Dad.

"Oh, I'm not very analytical! Wait…I do have an answer. What I know now is that life gathers speed as you get older. Time goes quicker and quicker. In the blink of an eye, a year passes and then two. I know now to make the most of every single day.

"I also know that in life don't chase the money. Chase the experience.

"And one more thing, I know what annoys me the most is people who moan when they have great lives. If you're having a great life why not say, 'I'm one of the luckiest people in the world!'"
