Wondering if other people have things that they Would have done differently in life if you knew then what you know now??
Marriages?
Children?
Work?
Priorities?
Life choices?
Love?
Schooling?
Anything?
Relating to that, I would be more careful about what sorts of women I had gotten involved with. I have had experiences with women who, if I can say it this way, just werent right for me. Yet due to desires and situations, got involved, got in too deep, with people who just werent right for me.

needs sometimes win
I would have taken the extreme hottie Kim up on her completely carnal offer in college.
Sorry, I can only think of 50 million others at the moment.
Never to have put alcohol and nicotine into my body. Sucks being a cardiac and pulmonary cripple.
Certainly not.
Best answer there will be on this thread. Bless you brother!
- Would have worked much harder in high school and tried to get into Stanford in 1982, majoring in Computer Science.
- Would have gone to work for Microsoft in the late Eighties when I had a chance to do so.
- Would have bought vast quantities of Apple stock at its lower points before the return of Steve Jobs.
- Never would have bought Las Vegas real estate in the last few years before 2008.
- Never would have left my job in 2008 to resume my consulting career.
- Never would have opened a retail store in a major mall.
Things look pretty good going forward, though, especially since Hillary will not be President. I'll try to avoid making any more massive blunders from here on out. :)
Be more respectful to God.
Better late than never.
Wouldn’t have married my ex, of course I wouldn’t have my great kids (4).
Prolly should have just shot her when I first wanted to. I’d have been out by now.
All in all, I’m pretty happy.
eyes not tits
I would have ignored the people telling me to get a white collar job and gotten my certification as a master diesel mechanic.
I would have ignored that stupid OB-GYN who told me the problems I was having were normal and gotten one who knew what he was doing. Then our children would have had a chance to live.
That is pretty much it.
The third item is what I really regret. The rest is just life.
And God has given me a pretty good life.
I’m with SoCal Pubbie. Where to start?
But, one thing I might have done is to persuade my wife to be a frugal person, as she was at the start of our marriage. Now, I see that I have enough money to satisfy all of my modest needs for the rest of my life, but not enough to satisfy her needs. So, I keep working and worrying about money. That seems crazy.
Wow. Where do I start?
Most of the time,where women are concerned, We aren’t too sharp.
I would have approached school work as an opportunity to master material, not stuff I had to get done.
Not much, because if you start to fork off the known path too soon, you are then on an all new completely unknown path, and any advantage you may have had due to your forknowledge is now gone and useless. Make sense?
I would stick to the script as much as possible and make a fortune :p

I led a very task-oriented life too
I would have posted more blogs and vanities in News/Activism and I would have spent more money on booze boats and broads.
