I would be the president and founder of the first "Anti-Feminist" organization and my organization would be geard to get women to stop hating men, being mean to any male born children she has, that getting married and having a family hasn't gone out of style even though these feminatzi women are so down on women who happen to love me and their families.
Would you make a sign and follow me?

Go to class. Pay attention. Then do my homework. That's the first, second and third thing - because its first thing in the morning.

Then I'd go after one of the thousands of college chicks. With the knowledge I have now, I would not be out to get laid. I'd be out to find a really great girl I wanted to spend the rest of my life with - and get laid by her and no one else.

With the knowledge I have now, I'd focus on networking early. Building strong relationships with mentors and peers enhances both educational and career opportunities. I'd also invest time in personal development and continuous learning beyond formal education. Expanding skill sets in areas like technology and communication would be a priority, as these are always valuable. Finally, I'd explore diverse fields before committing, ensuring alignment with my true interests and the evolving job market. This approach not only aids personal growth but also expands career options.

Would itbe now or 1987?

If 1987 I would join the military going into communication. Looking at a GI bill for computers. It was one of the options I was considering back then.

If today it would be quite awkward as I have grandchildren about that age. Establishing identity and the like would be most difficult. Also my mid 50s wife may have issues with it as well. But Id have a healthier body and much more time ahead of me.

Just buy all the things that will go up. Buy LotR mtg special collector boxes. For reference it was 200-300 everyone was negative on it saying that's to much, bad product, it's now 2000 and invest into Pokemon too.
Currently by the way everyone is negative on Spider-man Mtg cbs and ya know what? I bought one for 500, I don't make the same mistake twice. I've come a long way learning how the market works for these things so yeah I'd be sitting on even more product than I am now.

Orion84 · Answer

When I was 18, my girlfriend and I were living together, and it wouldn't be long until we broke up due to her wild mood swings.

Some time after which, she would be diagnosed as bipolar, and put on medication for it. If I were back at that point in time, I'd probably try and find a way to (gently) suggest she look into that.

If she had been on medication prior to our breaking up, the relationship might have actually lasted.

ohsheeT · Answer

I would go up on a mountain top or the black rock desert where all the stars are. It looks like there's twenty feet in the air above your head everywhere

I would reflect everything I did from eighteen to my age now and I would do everything completely opposite just about.

AviatorTom · Answer

I'd probably go to the bathroom first... then go to my divorced female neighbor's house. When I was 18 (the first time), she often asked me to help with things around the house: carry the groceries, change the lightbulb, help her hang curtains, etc. I was too naïve then to realize she was making a pass at me, and I never did anything. This time around... 😎

First thing? I’d run straight to my 18-year-old self’s laptop, buy Bitcoin like a maniac, then sit back and act mysterious while everyone wonders how I’m suddenly a millionaire. Oh, and maybe avoid that one embarrassing haircut phase while I’m at it.
