When I think about my own 18 year old self a couple of things come to my mind which are personal and don't make much sense for other people.

 

For other 18 year old people I would suggest: Discover life! Find out what you really want. Which work do you like or don't like? Where do you want to live? Which people are an inspiration for you?

Don't just study and follow a career path and later find out that this is not really what you like.

And if you live in a cold country with lots of ugly women maybe think about moving to a warmer place with pretty girls.

I wouldn't tell myself but rather remind myself to keep egging the fast bowler to keep bowling short.

Loved playing the hook shot over square leg.

That there is no need to be so painfully shy and you are actually more appealing to the opposite sex than you think you are.

In the hindsight I am happy that I was too shy or too stupid or whatever at that time.

When I see now a picture of the people from my school 30 years later I think: they are all so old. Imagine I would have married one of those women, even the prettiest of them. Oh no! Good luck I discovered Thailand later in my life.

Don't get married

Don't sell your property 

Don't get married again

Keep the Mk 1 Celica GT2000

For f#☆<s sake stop with the marriages

[talahtnut]

Take a f in chance.

[spidermike007]

Buy land in downtown Scottsdale. 

Buy some Microsoft and Apple stock. 

Notes to self:

Buy some Bitcoin at $1, in 2011. Buy some ETH in 2015, at 65 cents. 

Buy Palm Springs condos in 1995, and buy Vancouver condos in 2000.

 

Get out of America, as soon as you make your first 5 mil. 

 

Could have, should have, would have. 

[thaibeachlovers]

Never get married or have a long term live in G F.

 

Don't drink to get drunk.

 

Save as much as possible and buy property.

 

Never buy a computer and stay away from forums.

Read books instead.

 

If I think about going nursing get someone to slap me till the idea goes away. Working in the Australian mines would have made me wealthy, but I was stupid and chose the wrong path.

[Grecian]

spend more on women in my 20s because after 50 money is much less useful than I thought it would be.

[BritManToo]

Never marry, cohabit or impregnate in the west.

Save that money to use on Temple and beach holidays in Thailand.

[Harsh Jones]

I'd tell myself that everything I was told about life by Boomers was actually hogwash. Saving your money and being responsible does not get you ahead. Only irrational gambling gets you ahead.

 

So break your precious savings into 10k shots to gamble. Tesla scam here, bitcoin scam there. Anything that looks like an obvious pyramid scheme is a good investment. Follow the herd wherever it goes. Don't think.

Stay off of motorcycles!!!! 

Never get married and never procreate.

Invest at least 10% of all earnings.

In London I knew 2 Drs that were smashed while riding motorbikes. Neither was their fault and one wore all the protective gear.

 

I rode m'bikes since I was 18.

In Thailand I rode wearing helmet, gloves, t shirt, shorts and flip flops. My accident was caused by another motorcyclist driving into me when I was almost stationary, because he wasn't looking where he was going. I was lucky in that I got away with a broken bone in my hand and scraped legs. Could have been a lot worse. I was insured for riding a m'bike.

 

I rode in LOS knowing the potential for tragedy, but I believed that if I was going to have an accident there was nothing I could do to avoid it ( fate ), and it's just too hot to wear proper gear, which in the case of the Dr didn't save him anyway.

 

IMO the only way to be safe on a m'bike is to not be on a m'bike.
