No. Made chit loads of mistakes, did retarded chit, lots of regrets. But then again, it’s only been 2 years. So I know what to do now to make myself not regret the next 10 yrs

I'm nearly 28.
18 years old me was super skinny, aware of the misc, and began a bright future, away from an abysmal prior self image. He'd still be super proud of the job/income. But I don't think 18 years old me thought about projected career/income/financials beyond early-entry age (22). I think he'd be a bit disappointed in lack of a high sexual partner quantity, and disappointed I never got jacked, at least by current age. And a bit disturbed by zero social circle / social life - other than a GF and her friends here and there.
I think 18 years old me would've thought I'd be determined to have a period of life where I were jacked AF and irresistable / fawned over by women 24/7 365. Even if it were brief. But expecting a high sexual partner quantity to come out of it.
Would've been more interesting to hear about age 15-16 me though. He was fat, anxious, insecure. Probably would've thought the fact I'm not fat, not a virgin, and have any kind of decent job, is astounding.

It’d be a mixed bag.
Career wise? A disappointment that I don’t earn more money and am still working a dead end job I dislike with no end in sight (although on paper my current wage would’ve seemed impressive at 18 - inflation has been brooootal). I thought for sure by now I would’ve achieved financial freedom through some e-commerce venture. Shows how naive I was.
But relationship wise I have exceeded expectations and my lifestyle is for the most part more comfortable and luxurious than I could’ve imagined even if still poverty by misc standards. At 18 I was living in a house with holes in the roof and a mouse infestation. Now I live in a modern apartment in one of the more affluent suburbs of my city.
Overall I didn’t make a lot of bad decisions in my early 20s though. Any negative outcomes are because of inaction.

Yes. I am blessed far far more than I deserve. Still amazed every single day I live where I do, have the company I do, and the wife, home that I have. Out of all my friends when I wass 18, I am the last person I thought would end up where I have.

My 18yr old self would be shocked. Not by my character as much as by my circumstances. I have a lot more experience but at my core I'm the same person.
My circumstances are dramatically different.
My circumstances are dramatically different.
The closer we approach the uncertainty of life's ending the more we wish to trade all of the things we have acquired in exchange for all of the things we have lost: wealth for youth, knowledge for fresh curiosity, resignation for hope. We'd trade our wisdom for new experiences, but it is wisdom that will teach us that at the end of the road the only new experience is death.

In some ways they would've never imagined the things I've done. But in other ways he would've ended it right then and there if he saw the future. Find out next time on DragonBall Z...
Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; and if it is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.

18 year old me hadn't been Red Pilled yet so I probably wouldn't be too shocked at my current state of success. Now if you asked 24 year old me... I'd be ecstatic and thankful that I got about as lucky as I could without winning the lottery.
