What's one thing you wish you knew five years ago?

Hello, everyone.

Looking back, there are probably so many things we would do differently if we knew then what we know now. Could be about money, relationships, work, or just life in general.

For me, it's learning not to overthink everything and realizing that not everyone deserves my time and energy.

What about you guys? What's one lesson you wish you'd learned earlier?

Not caring what other's think about me and putting my energy torwards people not worthy off it.
Save your goddamn money.

That’s obviously a real multiplier for money.

It's like the only thing you should do if you were years back from now and kept the knowledge.

The sad thing is still I don’t have a complete knowledge on stock.

12 years back I had crypto especially BTC for the value of $50. And I spent it on the purchase of game items. Now I regret whenever think about crypto. The value now is can’t imagine. 😔

Yeah man. I forgot about my $20 in dogecoin since it was left overs from the HF award and it turned into $16K. I didn't cash out 😭

We could have saved. But we never knew the value.

Yeah, if only we knew at the time.
I sadly couldn't cash it out in time which sucks. I'm still in profit though. Just not nearly at $16k.

At least we must use the present time in a fruitful way. So we can save some for the future.
