How to deal with people looking down on me graduating at 27?

So I was at a party yesterday and this slightly older lady (of around 4 years my senior) asked me what I was doing and I replied I'm just graduating, she said, what your younger sister is already in work and your 27 not yet in a job.

I thought what's wrong with that and one-two of here female cousins started smirking.

I'm graduating in Computing with Maths (4 years degree) and I could even land a 30k graduate role. Who knows 3 years down the line I could be in contract jobs earning £40k a year with a mortgage (I've seen this happen to one of my cousins).

I don't understand why graduating with a good degree makes them laugh at 27, considering there are well paid careers in the computing field.

Does she have a degree? Im sure she feels inferior and has to find ways to knock other people down so she can feel good about herself.

Congrats on graduating!
