My was the 23rd. My birthday is the 23rd of July and my Golden Birthday was when I turned 23.

maybe its a midwest thing? It's when you turn the age of your date of birth. I was born on Nov. 15, so my golden birthday was when i turned 15.

Mine was when I was 4 because I was born on July 4th! It is exactly what witiwebprod1 said it's when you turn the age of your date of birth. So Katrina when is/was your golden birthday?

Mines was last year. 21ST of April When I Turned 21. I Dont Believe In Superstition or Golden Birthdays.

I wonder if it's just a myth or made up or like somebody said, "a "MIDWEST" thing".

**My 11th was a "Super Golden Birthday" because my birthdate is 11/11...and when I turn 55, it will be a Spectacular Golden Birthday because the number will also be doubled for the YEAR--11/11/11! I first realized that when renewing my driver's license--that is now good till 11/11/11. It doesn't stop there, because every 11 YEARS from then on I will have double numbers in the date, month AND the year: 66 in 11/11/22, 77 on 11/11/33, 88 on 11/11/44, and hopefully I will see 99 on 11/11/55!! After that, it will be "just another birthday"! LOL! Oh, and my 2 children, born 19 months apart, both share the SAME NUMBERS in their birthdates! Not the same birthday, but if you take each number in numeric order, they are the same, with the addition of the number "1"--for the first child! :-)

Wikipedia had some very interesting information on birthdays in general, and mentions Golden or "Star" birthdays also.

I bet if you look further online, there is more.

You know what'd stink? If you were born on Feburary 29th. You wouldn't be able to celebrate your golden b-day!

Mine was when i was 24....yup yup...and I stayed home and watched TV...exciting.

My golden birthday wan when I was five. That was 36 years ago. Wow i'm starting to feel my age. Now i'm depressed. (just kidding)
