One becomes a philosopher after attaining wisdom.
Modern psychologists treat the period from 35 to 40 years as middle-age crisis period. Most of the people may not feel much during this period. However for those few persons who experience its full intensity, it will be like a mini-death. In English, 'flourit' means the age of dawning of wisdom; it also means the age of 40.
(See a multi-volume dictionary in a library).
Energy in the body will be at its highest during the youth period from 25 to 40 years of age. Generally, Buddhi (intellect) starts functioning after the age of 40 years, but it may take longer for others. You can not
blame a teenager or a youth for not having it. It is a general observation that only person aged beyond 40
years are called intellectuals.

The general expression is "Life does not begin until 40."
LIFE BEGINS AT 40 -- "Middle age marks the start of a welcome new stage
of life. Maturity is the best time of life. Generally attributed to
American writer W. B. Pitkin (1878-1953).
Researchers from Great Britain and the U.S. analyzed data of more than two million people and spanning 35 years. They analyzed them for depression, anxiety, happiness and life satisfaction.
They found a U-shaped curve in which people reported being happiest in their 20s and in their 50s and older, but that both men and women were more likely to be depressed and were generally less happy in their 40s.

philosophy, history or literature after the
age of 40.

It would depend on how you define intelligence!
If 'intelligence is defined as 'efficiency' and 'elegance' of 'thought', being able to find answers, .... even knowing where to look, then real philosophers are the most intelligent/genius...
Philosophers are as rare as hen's teeth!
(There are many who imagine themselves 'philosophers' to support their imaginary self-images/ego!)
Philosophy is 'original critical thought';

As opposed to the 'scholastic';
"..."philosophologists", a term coined by Robert Pirsig ("Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance", "Lila") to denote people who study other people's philosophy but cannot do philosophy themselves. He also says that most people who consider themselves philosophers are actually philosophologists. The difference between a philosopher and a philosophologist is like the difference between an art and aesthetics; one does and the other studies what the other does and theorizes about it."
