When Does The Next Decade Actually Start? 2020 Or 2021?
When does a new decade actually start?
It’s hard to believe that it was 20 years ago that we were all panicking about Y2K!
But when does the new decade start?
According to a new survey, 64% of people say the new decade starts on January 1st, 2020 and ends on December 31st, 2029. But 17% say it starts on January 1st, 2021 and ends on December 31st, 2030. 17% don’t know and don’t care….
The best argument for the 2021 start: There was no year zero, so the first decade was 1 A.D. to 10 A.D. The best argument for the 2020 start: Come on, it’s obviously right.
Either way, here’s to a wonderful 2020!
