"If I knew then what I know now..."

If you could send a message to your 20 year old self, what would you tell that person?

I would tell me, "You don't really want to get married and have kids. That's just what society teaches you to think, but it's not for everyone. The truth is you won't want that life once you get a taste of it, and that's OK. You are still worthy of love, happiness, and success. There are other far more interesting things you will want to pursue. Find them, and be free from that pressure."

I'd tell me, " See that bitch you with, RUN LIKE THE WIND"

Level 9

I would tell me that personality (warm, caring, not controlling and not self-absorbed) and intelligence are a damned sight more important in a potential mate than beauty

Consider a career teaching in a small college. True innovation does NOT happen in industry. Greedy, impatient companies are risk averse and more about ego than anything.

First I would tell him everything I learned about women since that point. Then I would tell him to buy Breex shares at $.15 and put a sell order on them at a $110 per share Take the money and buy farmland. Then how to make the farm pay without going into debt.

I would probably have to go back to sixteen. Follow you dreams and get an education no matter what that takes. I would explain in detail what critical thinking is. I would tell him to enjoy and don’t feel ashamed of enjoyment.

Just go for the dream; don't give up on it.

"You are not worthless, you will do things you never dreamed of and save many lives. You are worth better than the woman you pretend you love because you fear no one else will love you. A girl from Vermont will steal your heart and light the fire in you, she is the one so fight for her. BUY FUCKING BIT COINS."

'Take it easy', i would have said. 'Life is not about any of it.'

I love this. Such a nonspecific comment, but I feel like I know exactly what you mean.
