What's one thing you know now, that you wished you had known as a kid?

[O4L]

most importantly: Personal development. It is up to us to educate ourselves and fill any gaps left by family or school. I wish i had discovered Jim Rohn as a child as everything that comes out of that dudes mouth is potentially life changing at any age...let alone as a young man.

Enjoy my late teens and 20s more and have as much sex as possible with hot little baddies...

How to allocate money/invest/trade. The stock market isn't that bad once you get over the initial intimidation of the financial realm. had i started doing basic/simple/passive investment strategies in my late teens I would be a millionaire in my 30s.

I wish I had realized that money = choices. The more money you have the more choices that are available to you...so focus on building wealth early to set my future self up for a life filled with choices

Guns and ammo increase in value each year and make excellent long term investments/inflation hedges.

so to recap: personal development, sex, money, guns and bullets.

I don't know that Jim feller but the rest of it sounds good.

That I was going to live long enough for all those broken bones and busted knees to come back and haunt me.

Don’t be stupid, don’t do things the hard way, don’t drink going to the Red Dog get in a fight with your cousin back off into a ditch then call dad, get out of dodge and experience more of life.

Only problem with vehicles is the cost of storage over time can eat up the value…that and the fact that they are in a constant state of decay which goes back to needing to store them somewhere to protect from that. Granted if you had bought a couple of superbirds, shelby mustangs and first gen z28 Camaros and kept them is papas barn for decades…doesn’t matter how much the rats chewed the wires those things would still be worth a fortune lol.

honestly just parking any extra money in the s&p 500 would have been the deal. Nothing to worry about just watch it go up constantly.

I enjoyed reading everyone's post. I think by following my upbringing I should have made a living with my hands. I would have enjoyed it more than the desk job I have. Granted this job has bought and payed for my current GREAT life, but something about building and fixing that is so satisfying. @O4L you nailed it Mom and Dad really were smart.

that the slippery slope is very, very real and don't let them tell you it isn't. prevent any and all laws that infringe upon the rights of people. you will get legal weed but you'll lose everything else.
