    As they say, hindsight is 20/20. What are the things you wish you'd have known back when you were in your twenties? What wisdom do you wish to impart to younger folks who're just starting out? 😊

    Get a job (I started working in my 30s).
    Set long-term goals.
    Save up early for retirement.

    Build your career and make a good choice in partner. You're set Jut, you have both

    This decade is really critical and I think my failure in life is due to the wrong decisions I made in my 20s.

    My biggest mistake was not being conscious of time/years (only worked a few years in my 20s and wasted my youth in a dead end relationship)

    I read this article 5 years ago,

    John Gokongwei – Ateneo School of Management Speech, March 22 | Archian Speaks in Bacolod and Dubai

    ... .. it became my inspiration to (slowly) break out of the corporate mold and go back to my farming roots.

    I'm still a corporate slave right now, but I'm proud to say that change has begun.

    Don't be afraid of debt. No better time to invest in relatively riskier ventures than when you're younger.

    Take your old man's advice about most things to heart but have your own ideas on how to improve on them as well.

    Ask every girl you like out. You'd be surprised how many like you as well.

    Save more. A lot more.

    Stay connected to your friends.

    True on number 1. It can make or break you. So choose a good partner while most of the good ones aren't taken yet in their 20s.

    Nah. A few years earlier. In hindsight, I should've skipped college in the PH and taken it in the US instead. If I listened to the guidance from my relatives here, I wouldn't have overloaded my class schedules.

    I'm kinda torn on this one. But, I shouldn't have been afraid of my HS crush's 6 older brothers and 1 younger brother. But, they looked like toughies. So, I chickened out.

    She never did marry although she has a kid now. Seen photos of her in FB. He He. She has no idea what I look like now though. Better it stays that way.

    He won't get my respect even if he owned a private jet. And LV everything? Tacky.

    Who the heck spells ako as "acqwoh"

    These are the times I miss my crush/heartbreaker, he's so modest and quintessential conyo.

    sounds like a wheeler-dealer hustler kind of guy

    smooth talker, big money talker, name dropping kind of guy

    Unicity was different when it was still starting. Nobody recruited me. But not sure how it is now. If it's jejemon na rin [emoji14]
