    Actually Frodo was in his 30s when he received the Ring, he was in his 50s when he left the Shire…
    Sorry to bother, I’ll crawl back in my hill-dug home now

      The real problem is when frodo is asking this question and it could be anywhere between ~30 and ~50… the age relationship between frodo and bilbo is incorrecr. it should be either 111 - 30 or 131 and 50

      Edit: just remembered, frodo was 33 when he got the ring. On the books, some invetees to bilbos party where pissed off cause they felt like they were invited just to cover the 144 main guests (adding both bilbo’s and frodo’s age at the time)

        Unless math works differently in Middle Earth, that is exactly what I meant
