    When you run away, never look back. Don’t visit, don’t call, don’t keep numbers, don’t give out your number. Just disappear and start a fresh new life. Find someone that you admire and start figuring out how to be like them.

    Invest in Google. Buy an island. Install automated turrets. Don’t worry about saving for retirement, cause it won’t matter when society collapses.

    For all the bitcoin comments, just know that its never too late.

    I didn’t buy when it was pennies. I saw it jump from $5 to $20. Then, a few years later, I bought lots and lots when it was in the $100s.

    I held for a decade and finally sold this year. I now have enough to retire.

    Future you will say “why didn’t I buy when it was $100,000”?

      The thing is, in a year’s time bitcoin could be worth $200k or it could be worth $0.

      Trump loved crypto because he grifted with some NFTs and then he needed support to win an election. That’s done now so we’re 1 brain fart away from a royal decree that crypto is bad.

      People don’t sell up all their shares because they have enough to retire on.

        I’m a year’s time, 1 USD could be worth double what its worth now, or it could be worth 0.

        Most likeluy, however, in 10 years, bitcoin will be worth more than $200k and USD will be worth much less than it is today.

          That’s a false equivalence. Yes the USD could be worth $0 but the chances of that are infinitesimal in comparison to the chance that crypto will be worthless.

          You have no evidence on which to base an assertion of bitcoin’s most likely future value. Past performance is not an indication of future performance.

          The only surety is that crypto will consume egregious amounts of energy in the course of producing absolutely no value.

    The world is waaay dummer and less fair than you think so don’t stress about things too much cause it’s rigged anyway.

    Having said that, persistence does eventually get you there

      But they only didn’t happen because you stayed cautious. Now your younger self will throw caution to the wind and suffer the consequences.

    Girls want to date / fuck just as much as you do… So be cool, just chill… Work on your self, be the best version of you that you can be… Work on your communication, be upfront honest and forthcoming.

    Take that money you were saving for university and buy Apple stock. Still move to the university town and hang out on campus, but skip the tuition fees and going to class; spend the time while others are in class working for a few years and putting more money into Apple stock.

    Cash out some of that money a few years later and use it for a cheap bachelor’s degree; leverage that to get into the field you want to be in.

    Then later, cash out some more to buy property… say, around 2008. But keep feeding more money in.
