Well,

0 years
1 - 5 years
5 - 8 years
8 - 10 years

15 - 20 years

Do i need to enter this values in each and every field, where i want to use it or can i save it somewhere and select it for usage?

You need to enter the same information into every field you intend to use it for. So if you have 3 fields that have those same values you'll need to enter those values for those 3 fields when creating them. You can create select type fields and their values within CB > Field Management.

What about a Feature Request? Would be easier, to enter just once such lists and add them to a field.

Field values are linked to a field. What is planned is a custom select fieldtype that pulls its values from a custom database table, which is what you'd use in this case, but it's not planned until CB 2.0 or later.
