- You’re gonna HAVE TO learn how to be okay with being by yourself. Doing things by yourself, learning things by yourself, being comfortable by yourself. Because there will be many times you will be alone.

- Protect your body. You only have one, and you’re gonna need it the rest of your life.
You are the only person in this world who can make sure you get all the food, sleep, exercise,
and care that your body needs - and when you get into your 30s, that chit starts falling apart.
But you can help your future self by protecting your body today.
RELATED SIDEBAR: Try your best not to get addicted to chit. Drinking, smoking, pills, gambling, sex, MILF porno, Facebook, whatever.

- Treat people like you might see them again, because you might. It really is a small world.
I say that to say things like “legacy”, “value”, and “reputation” are things we tend to relate to getting
older and being established; truth is, we define that as we are right now. The rep you have in your young life can follow you forever, for better or worse.

Max out the 401k especially if the company matches or Youre a dummy
I don’t need 7,000 pairs of sneakers
Telling women you never came from head 100% guarantees they will die trying

There are three rules that I live by:

never get less than twelve hours sleep;

never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city;

and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.

Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.

Put you first period

Women are fickle creatures who can switch up at any point. Aint ur chick, its just ur turn

Stack that bread. Going to sleep with ya pockets secure is a whole diff level of peace

Pay yourself, first.

If she can't use your comb, don't bring her home.

Ask for what you want, demand what you need.​

(1) Save/Invest as early and as much as you can before other responsibilities start to accumulate. Once you get married and or start a family that shyt will eat into your finances HEAVILY.

(2) Enjoy your youth. -Travel, party, be a hoe, play video games. Whatever it is that you think is fun, do it. Do it ALOT. Once your career, family life starts to pop off you'll have less time to enjoy these things.

(3) Wait as long as you can to have kids or get married. This ties in with the first two. Alot of my friends had kids and or got married early. (Early 20's) and they missed out on saving money and their bachelor years and it affected their marriages something serious. These cats are now almost 40 and trying to relive their 20's.

Get rich or die tryin

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

Do NOT worry about women. They will be there. Get on your purpose and spend this time improving yourself cause once you get a girl and a family, your free time will be pretty much nonexistent because you will have other responsibilities.

My dad tried to tell me this. I didn't listen.

1) Be prepared for a "reset." No matter how much you think you have your shyt together life can come at you pretty fast. I'm sure the pandemic had a lot of people moving back with parents/family. There's people who get in their 3rd year of college and realize they hate their major and switch it, which prolongs their graduation process. And that's OKAY. Things you're into or want to do in your 20's will most likely completely change in your 30's. People change careers, have kids, have tragedies, and things that change the course of their lives. It's a part of life. I used to want to live in miami close to the beach and be one of those sexy flexy dudes that workout on the beach and bag women. I did that by 24 and realized it was overrated.

2) Avoid contracts, lease agreements, and payment plans. If I can't afford 75% of it at the very least, I shouldn't even be looking at it. This is how most people end up in debt.

3) Always put yourself first. Whether relationships, friendships, business, whatever. Everyone else is doing the same and you'll only end up hurting yourself in the long run trying to make everyone else happy. Can't fill a cup from a half empty glass (or however the saying goes lol)
