I got recommended your video at the perfect time. I'm 27 now and I prioritized all my time with my girlfriend instead of making long lasting friends. I regret it now but all I can do is try to make friends somehow
I’m 23 now, going through life I felt like nobody really told me what life after being a kid and college student was like, or how to prepare for it (most likely because they wanted me to enjoy it). Through a lot of trial and error things are working out. However, looking forward, I know that the challenges will continue to evolve so I really appreciate you laying this out for us. Best
very good advice, i just turned 25. I wasted my college years not making connections and I regret it now. Luckily I always had my head on straight when it came to finances and a career. I live in a big city, have a great job, travel and have a ton of hobbies, but it's the friends that I'm trying to catch up on
Agree with the author. The only thing I regret didn’t start earlier is practicing compassion snd spirituality. Find the best philosophy you feel you can stick to and it will harmonize your life tremendously.
I’m 27 but I’m somehow living like I’m in my early 20s (setback kinda like you mentioned) … I feel behind but not really after watching this. Time to lock in though.
24 and don't got shit going on at all. Didn't make any connections in college, stuck at a dead end job, while having a math degree, and have nothing on my resume except a few jobs I worked through college. Life sucks because I didn't take advantage of networking.
@@changalbert yeah but how? I’ve applied to so many places but not getting in because of no connections and all that. The only thing I have is my degree
@@fiat_ow7876 you could start cold reaching out to people on LinkedIn who have jobs you want and just ask them about what they do and how they got the job. And just do that for like a year, I bet you'll get the job you want if you do that
27 / accountant / hate it / quit with no backup / parents freaking out / I'm (quietly) freaking out / don't want to see an excel spreadsheet again / will be broke in approx. 8 months if I don't figure something out / wtffff / do I exile myself to SE Asia / do I just end it / wtffffff
You've got this, a random internet stranger believes in you! Things will naturally turn out how they're meant to. There's no "one way" to do things, you'll figure out your way. Go where or towards the way you want to go and don't hesitate. I believe you're very smart, it sounds like it's critical for you're well being to get out of accounting. What options are available to you right now that you would rather do over accounting? To be an accountant I'm sure you have a wide skill set, use those to your advantage. Wish you the best!
yeah reaching my 30's. I'm 27 now. I actually am glad I listened to my elders. Exercised a lot in my early 20s, so now I don't have that much health problems. Also studied hard too, so I got a few opportunities (in healthcare). In grad school, I wasn't that quiet studious kid, I actually talked in class, studied in groups, and joined clubs. A few people like to keep up with me from grad school. High school was the same. Played sports and did religious activities = ended up with 2 life long high school friends. The only thing that gets to me is imposter syndrome :>(((
I experienced most of the big life events before the age of 20 which forced me to grow up really fast. Now i’m 25 and just feel burnt out.

Do you plan on going to grad school?
@@BOSSDONMAN I've thought about it, but currently I have no plans to do so
Make friends at work
Join clubs biking, workout, sports, yes theory
@@hellowill I work 95% of the time from home actually haha, yeah not the best for friends.
It's always good to see people trying to help others in some way
Once you started early 30s, that hit me. Nothing but truth was said.

Thanks for this vid ! Late 20s but honestly, I struggle to be sociable , be like able , comparing not just myself but family with others.
Same bro
This feels like getting a game Meta read for modern 20’s. Thanks for the insight.
Very good content.
I got lost on the “hitting on your friend” part but overall good stuff
These are very, very accurate lol holy shit.
Stating the obvious. Or as the Dutch would say, you're 'kicking in open doors'.
Thanks for this video! I’m turning 20 soon and I’m terrified of becoming an adult. I hope I can make something of myself and live a fulfilling life.

@@fiat_ow7876 bro you are barely getting started with your career. You can start now
@@changalbert yeah but how? I’ve applied to so many places but not getting in because of no connections and all that. The only thing I have is my degree

Meet them in person and interview them
@@changalbert Ok I’ll try this, thanks

@@jawlig 8 month is a long time. You'll figure it out. Plus you can always get another accounting job if all else fails
