What would you tell your 20-year old self? (college, people)

[Sigma Male]

I would tell myself to buy as much stock in Amazon, Apple, and a few others when they first are offered and hold them till I'm in my 60's.

Oh Yeah....when you meet that short, cute blonde woman named Christine...…..RUN!!!!

Buy Microsoft stock

Be more outgoing and less shy, because you are smart and capable.

Nearly 40-year old Pic to 20-year old Pic: It's OK to live a little and make a few mistakes along the way. Having strived to live perfectly will not make you the most relatable person later-on.

I'm 33 now.

I graduated during the Great Recession in a part of Tennessee where there isn't much of an economy. I would have transferred to Duke or UNC-Chapel Hill most likely.

And I would have told my 20 year old self to buy Bitcoin in a few years

There wasn't much more on our minds other than doing what we were told to do, surviving, and get home as soon as possible.

Probably nothing. I don't think the right questions were being asked at that time, so I wouldn't listen to myself.

Live beneath your means. Save for your retirement. Cherish your love ones. Waste not, want not.

Years ago in the car while driving, I heard an interview with Nora Ephron about her book "I Feel Bad About My Neck" and she advised (jokingly) to spend your youth constantly in a bikini before your body succumbs to aging. I completely agree with her.
