What is a word for having a lot of life experience or a person with a lot of life experience?

I am trying to think of a word, other than mature, that means "to have a lot of life experience" and that would be able to describe a person with such. (By "life experience" I mean more than just growing up and learning to live in the world; more like "to be good at interacting with people and dealing with things negative and positive as if it were a skill.")

For instance the word guile can mean to have sly or cunning intelligence (from a quick google search of "define guile"). So with guile you could say that a person has plenty of guile.
