What advice would you give yourself at the age of 20?

Live more minimally, invest more, focus on wealth building and early retirement.

Don't get married next year, you dumbfuck.
The guy in HR of your first "real job" that told you that you're too young to save for retirement, kick him in the nuts and save all you're allowed in that 401k. Invest in all in the S&P500 until you educate yourself about personal finance/investment.
Learn to sail. Now. This weekend.

"In retrospect its easy to say I got fucked over and that she "caught" me with her manipulation"
It's happened to a lot of us here. If I was 20, wouldnt have had kids for one. would've gotten a vasectomy at 16 not 40 like I did, would have had a very different life for sure.

Focus on yourself and put everything you have into your own personal and professional development. Become a better version of yourself each and every day.

Save, invest.

Ok, to date, just don't marry or live with a woman and always protect yourself. Keep your head down and quietly succeed while others are flailing around you. Always put yourself and your own needs first because in Western society, nobody else will. That's the hard truth. Society doesn't give two shits about you and will never give you help if you struggle, but will go out of the way to help women and other identity groups. Realize that your always last in line so you gotta be your own best friend and benefactor.

Non serviam.

Stop fucking caring about what others think about you and start caring about what you think of you. Stop being nice for no reason, learn how to invest and maybe find a few hobbies along the way.

Like already said: don't invest any energy in simping. Go your own way in the broadest sense of the word: make your own plans and follow your own visions. People who say you can't? Just reverse psychology that and see that as an extra challenge. I can say it's very satisfying to see the look of the "can't doers" faces when you pull it off. Even more if you say, that was only an "in between station." Now I'm pushing it even further.

Apart from the simping which cost me precious energy and time I did the rest exactly as said.

If I was to do over it would be to not go a 4 year university and use that money to buy a car and instead enroll in a trade school or community college. I could care less about women right now but at that time I cared more about them then I did stabilizing myself economically.

never cohabitate.The rest comes easy

LTRs aren't the best way to get sex. Just Pump and Dump !

Older_Miggy · 2019-04-22T22:01:38+00:00

I would tell myself:

Don't spend your twenties goofing off. Figure out what you want to do and go do it.

Stay away from single mothers.

Never uproot yourself and move cross country for a woman. And if she ditches you, go right back.

Take risks. Move to Texas like you did 30 years later. You might have to sleep in your car a few weeks....so what?

Get in the stock market, and stay there. Start your own business(es). Never have to rely on anyone else to survive.

This shit is a lot harder to pull off when you're older. DO IT NOW.

Blissbynature · 2019-04-22T23:45:25+00:00

Quit your vices now, all of them. Exercise more, eat good food, be minimalist. Be a Brahmachari. Love God.

"Never trust a woman."
