If you could go back just to tell your eighteen year old self

>>37638672
Nothing. Because there's nothing I could have done differently that would have made my life less shit.

>>37638672
Don't go to college, it's just like you thought it was, and don't tell Noa who you really are, she will leave you if you do. and you will want to die every day after.

Invest in bitcoin, put everything in it, and guard the wallet with your life.

Don't go to college, work two jobs and invest in the property Market as soon as you can.

It doesn't get much better, so make the most of the time you have and better yourself.

I can't find any good pictures of myself from 18.

Kill yourself after graduating and save everyone a lot of money and time.

>>37638762
Oi, you live in Indiana or Florida? Name sounds familiar.

I'd just give myself lottery numbers.

I had everything figured out long before I was 18.

>>37638720
This.

I had no chance. I'm 30 now. I've had enough experience over the last 12 years to understand I had no chance.

Not everyone "makes it", and some of us get even less than "not making it", like being modern hermits.

Get better rope.
It only gets worse after you lose your nerve.

>>37638865
You sound identical to me, except I'm a bit older. I never had a chance.

For me, there's a lot I'd change. I've grown a lot since I was 20,(28 now). Don't care for wealth, just know my current wisdom could've netted better people and career success.

STUDY FOR THAT FINAL NATIONAL EXAM YOU FUCKING MORON, AND GO TO A BETTER COLLEGE WHICH WILL MAKE YOU A HAPPIER PERSON AND YOU WON'T END UP BEING A DEPRESSED PIECE OF SHIT, BROWSING 4CHAN, TALK TO THAT GIRL, GO OUT, HAVE FUN, DON'T CARE ABOUT WHAT OTHERS THINK, DONT' BE AFRAID TO DANCE, DON'T HATE PEOPLE, DON'T AVOID FUN.

>In a couple of years, you're going to get the bright idea that you should get ADHD medication again, so you can sell it for extra money. Don't fucking do that. You will sell a few bottles, but then you will start taking it yourself and become completely dependent on it. Don't fucking do it.

>>37638672

"Put in some godamn effort instead of being such an underachieving piece of shit".

Stop being so depressed, talk to girls more, play it cool and DO NOT GET DRUNK AT THAT PARTY. DO NOT DO IT. DON'T EVEN TOUCH THE VODKA

>>37638672
Don't start working at intel. Go apply to Microsoft intstead. Dont cheat on Chrissy with Sarah you dumb dumb moron. Don't punch that asshole who made a pass at Anita with me standing right there, 60 days and a criminal record ain't worth it.

Don't sell your 55' mustang. Don't. Ever!
Don't ignore dad when he asks you for a ride after he gets wasted at the bar

>>37638966
Vodka story?

I'm trying to imagine a situation where a person truly "didn't have a chance", and it's not coming to me. I perfectly understand that the game is rigged and that some people are dealt a tremendously shitty hand, but the basic truth will always remain that you have to play the hand you are given.

STOP LYING TO YOURSELF AND BELIEVING THAT THINKING POSITIVE LEADS TO A POSITIVE RESULT, DON'T BE A PRISONER OF YOUR OWN MIND AND YOUR OWN MADE UP VALUES, DANCE AT PROM, GO TO THAT EXCURSION, STOP LIMITING YOURSELF.

All you people just posting investment advice are boring. That would be a given for anyone to say to their past selves.

I'm 18, how do I start investing? I punched my dad in the face and he divorced my mom, and he was a narcissist so it's not like I was going to get substantive life advice from him in the first place.

What websites do I go to? Can I pay someone to put my money in the right place and teach me what I'm doing?

>>37639099

The people posting here are giving tips that ended up working out in retrospect. No one knows what's coming in the future.

>>37638672
Go work to any fast food restaurant but Carl's Junior and invest everything in BTC.

>>37639112
>giving tips that ended up working out in retrospect

I thought it was the opposite; that these tips are what they should've done.

>>37639133

Yeah. These tips are solid with hindsight, so people are telling their past selves to do it, because they know it would work out.

>>37639149
Specifically related to my investing question, if they're kicking themselves for not learning it when they were 18, they presumably have to know how it works now, right?

>>37639166

Saying "buy Amazon, buy Google, buy X" isn't really evidence of knowing anything about investing. It's literally just good advice because we know NOW that these stocks were about to take off hard.

>>37638672
>fucking transition now when you can pass the feelings never go away

In 2017 you will get the opportunity to tell your eighteen year old self one sentence, so I recommend you spend your time thinking of what that sentence should be so that your successor receives better advice than I have given you.

>>37638970
>55 Mustang
ok

>>37638672
You'll never be happy; so whatever you think is probably the best option at any time, just do the opposite.

At least it would interesting.

Don't suffer and make better, more thoughtful friends on 4chan than the ones you currently have around you.

stop smoking it's a waste of time and makes you complacent

Stop hanging out with your "friends" they are only going to pull you down. Especially Richard

Invest in bitcoin

Loose that bit of weight it makes a huge difference with women.

Either stay away from Kristen or bang her and move on. She's trouble.

Take that career in art or animation the competition isn't the great

Do not finance a car until you're 25 or 30

Stay in school

Also suck up your pride and go back to the crappy job you hated, better than the ensuing 4 years of NEETdom coming up.

Heroin isn't worth it

Stop avoiding your friends, I promise they don't all secretly hate you.

It'd be one of these. Idk which one though.
