And on the flip side you might plan out your life to begin when you're thirty, wait until youre wise and wealthy, then suddenly die.

If you live somewhere where life expectancy is close enough to 30 to make that eventuality part of your life choices, then go ahead and marry as a teenager. Don't even wait for 20, marry at 16.

Likewise, if you live in a place where nobody dies before they reach their life expectancy, waiting might be a good idea.
