You gotta walk your own path.
Most people know exactly what they have to do to obtain a skill, start a business, make a friend, experience and adventure but simply don’t out of fear of the unknown.
The Internet is helpful but you got to put stock in your own lived experience.
Go to party every day. Use all the drugs. Fuck everyone you can (that consents).
I wish :-(
Recover
Meet with a trusted financial advisor and plan your retirement ASAP
The starting gun has already fired. Don't be idle and wait for life to come to you, you need to go get it!
ITT 40 yesr olds tell you to put 10% of your non-existent savings on retirement funds. Good sdvice tbh but they failed to account for landlords and shit
Whatever you’re thinking, don’t.
Don't get married before you're 25
Around 30 years old your body stops healing, injuries are just things you live with forever now, and old injuries you thought had healed come back as forever pain.. just keep that in mind when doing stupid shit... This includes injuries to your lungs and mind from things like smoking and drugs.
If you want to help people in any way, get rich first. No one will pay you enough to live off of for helping people... Better to bring your own wealth to the table and hopefully be able to help people for real with it.
If you don't already know how, learn to code asap... In 20 years, programming will be one of the few jobs left... Maybe
I ain't trying to scare you, but if you live a statistically average life you're about to hit a downward trend in your mood which will last a couple of decades. By the time you're thirty you'll likely have a boss, a spouse and kids, all of whose needs will have to come before yours. Things start to improve again at age 47 when the kids have moved out and you're at the top of your career.
Maintain your friendships. It's so easy to make them a low priority, but having good friends and being a good friend to them is the way to make it through.
