Stay up OP Im 26 about to get out of the military in April to finish my bachelors. Feel like I should have been way further in life but I've traveled the world and have 6 years job experience so its not all bad. Stay low and keep pushing.

We gotta learn not to compare ourselves to others...

We are men...some of us don't get our life together until we are 50...:yeshrug:

I'disagree
Wiseman learns from the mintakes of others

Another man's mistakes can be another man's opportunity...

Everyone's situation is different...our experiences are singular and our mind's are singular...there is no real comparison to be made

If you constantly poking your head out to see if another person is shooting out the trenches...you gonna get shot...stay in your hole and do what you gotta do...or wanna do...and keep it moving...

fukk looking at the lives of other people for...somebody can drop out of school and become successful...while somebody can stay in school and lose his shot...

Somebody can get with a single mother...and become successful due to the stabilization and responsibility that is required to maintain the relationship...somebody can get with a single mother and get trapped...

I stopped comparing myself to others and just do my own thing...


Life isn't linear...and isn't lived in stages


“How much time he gains who does not look to see what his neighbour says or does or thinks, but only at what he does himself, to make it just and holy.”
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

“Comparison is the death of joy.”

I think it's pretty much over if by the time you're 25 you don't:
Own your own house
Travelled around the world
Finished your education
Smashed countless women
Settled on your career and quickly advancing
Settled down with the woman you'll be spending the rest of your life with.

If you haven't done any of these then a life of shytflessness and poverty will be your lot.

Start reading some savings and investing books. I have copies of Brass Knuckle finance I can email you if you want to take a look at them. I believe I also have Dave Ramsey's book Total Money makeover, but I'll hav It's better to have a plan BEFORE you get a job instead of figuring it out after the fact. Like King Poetic said, it's never too late.

Ayeeeeeee lemme get a copy of brass knuckle finance plz :feedme:
