Default One More Question Re House Circuit Breakers, Please ?

Hi again,

Should have asked this as part of my previous circuit breaker question, but
forgot:

Is it common or typical for an "old" house service box circuit breaker
(perhaps 25 yrs old) to go bad,
and trip by itself, even if there is nothing wrong with the circuit it is
controlling ?

What's a "typical" life for these things ?

Thanks again,
Bob
