I suppose it's one of those things which differs from person to person. Some are completely ready at say age 20 or even younger, some may not be ready until their late 20s, 30s and beyond and maybe some never reach that place where they truly are ready?

You have forgot one important aspect of getting married "financially". Even if you have the four aspects you have mentioned, but if your not financial stable, it won't work. And the age, at least 26 years. That works for me as I decided that I'm already physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually and financially stable during that time.

Hello there. For me, if you will enter in this matrimony, you should be responsible enough to handle things such as problems that will arise.But it is not just how responsible he/she is, we should also consider his capacity, capacity to provide money in order to sustain the needs of your family.In order to obtain that, he/she must have a good job with a good salary of course.
And i think we should have marriage in the range of ages 25-32, because in that age we are ready for such responsibility. Also i know that from that age, we have a good job.
We know nowadays, that teenagers have an early marriage, are they happy for their situation? Some reasons why teens commits to have an early marriage especially for the girls is because they were pregnant.
Therefore, it is better to have marriage at the time that you are ready for it and we should have a good job "with good salary".

I got married just before I turned 25, and I think that was too young for these days. I am not just over 30 and I am going through a seperation. You need to find yourself after you finish your schooling and so on. I say around 30 or so.

Hi there Duaa the Angel!
It would be really hard to generalize as to what age would be the best for people to get married. I think that it depends upon the person's mental age or "maturity". It comes in varying ages for different people but I think the person should be at least twenty-four and is already stable in all aspects of his or her life.
