Each to their own - I just said work, coz I love working and stashing the cash enabled me to retire at 30 and live mortgage free. I travelled in my teens and have no further interest in it. Nothing is work if it's something you enjoy. So NeuroNeptune playing the drums gives her a reason to get up in the morning. It's creating memories that is much more important that what you actually do. Some teens waste years in front of the TV or computer screens gaming etc. Get out there with people and have fun while you have the energy!!
Haha wish I was that sensible. Before getting an apartment I had a hard time saving money because I enjoyed eating out too much. Spending 18 years eating nothing but canned and frozen food and fast food and now I can eat good food!? Yeah haha. I don't have time for more that one full time job though. I'm a full time student =\
I was born 'sensible' :o( but as a tudent partying etc never really cost me that much. I bought my first house at 18 (to renovate) but when I met my husband at 23 he had a loan for a motorbike!! Each to their own as I say! I have enjoyed my life to the full and I have no regrets for any decisions that I have made.
I had a crap childhood and have recently fallen into poor health - but funnily enough, my husband says I always make a remarkable recovery at the weekends, when I head out clubbing :o)
Whatever you do with your youth - get out there and enjoy it!!
Wow, congratulations on your good fortune. :) My primary interest being the visual arts I don't plan on anything quite so successful early on.
And I think that's what I was really getting on to... I care more about good memories, interesting experiences and any chance to learn or broaden my horizon than living simply to put food on my plate. I do want to work.. I just feel that a lot of people get too caught up in all that and don't put it in perspective properly with the rest of their lives :)
Absolutely - and they are boring, boring, boring. I hated working in offices and towing the line so I also worked in a bar and renovating houses in my spare time.
My crap childhood meant that I saw education and financial security as important to me.
At my age, I truly believe that the most important thing in this life is having a laugh every day. I have some lovely friends but I only associate with people now who are great fun and make me laugh soooo much.
