So I read this article: http://www.raptitude.com/2010/02/3-p...lf-if-i-could/



his advice was:



1) Spend your time and money on things that make your life better, rather than things that make you feel good.



2) Every single day, get better at meeting people and developing relationships



3) Don’t work for anyone else



What would you tell your 18 year old self if you could go back in time?

Never argue with a woman who is PMSing, unless she is about to spend a lot of money or do something both stupid and irreversible.

^good one!!!



I really don't regret anything. It's all been with good intentions and morals, never had any consequences of any kind. I tossed away all the people that didn't deserve my friendship and support. So... maybe not to think that everyone is and will always be the same because nature morphs, evolves as time progresses and we have to accept it and move on. Everything before that was just within the order of a social-capitalist system, and now it's more like a capitalist western yee haww.

Buy lots of Google and Apple stock, and invent something called Facebook.
