10 000 divided by 365.5 = 27.3597811

so yeah.. no matter how you slice it, 10000 days is no where near 36.5 years.
Sorry... actually when you consider leap years, the average length of the year works out to 365.25 days, plus about 15 minutes.

Otherwise, yes, totally, there is no way that 10000 days is 36 years and six months. It's much closer to 27 years 3 months.
