I am very curious what words of wisdom you would want to give your young adult son or daughter or your younger self if you had the chance.
There is a lot of life experience on this forum, things we have done right, mistakes we made. Things we wish we had done or not done. The direction and philosophy of life we took or wish we had taken. Things we missed out on because of timidity, or things we rushed into because of foolishness.
What would you like to say to your son or daughter (or younger self) about life and how to get the most out of it? I am not talking about LBYM or the wisdom of saving, I am sure we all know this, but rather about the other things in life. What wisdom do you have to impart?
Having kids of my own, it is more than just a philosophical question. I want to help them learn from my successes, avoid my mistakes while encouraging them to embark on some great adventures of their own. I think this forum is probably the best place in the world to ask this question. I am so curious about what you all will say (before I meet my son for lunch next week).
