Perfect comment garyground and that suits well with what i am doing now. You are the perfect example why many of us here shouldnt mind sacrificing our twenties and then reach our 30s with a substantial amount of cash that will allow us to live a better playboy lifestyle in contrast to the limited ones that some on here live, where you have to be counting every penny (cents).
However i advise cats to travel hard from 18 to the age of 24/25 so you get to feel what is like to be free and how happy you truly are when you are constantly travelling but when you are travelling, focus also on business, dont just travel for the sake of it. So use those university loans in a smart way, travel and invest at the same time..get that good degree..aim for that perfect job and then after lots of travelling you will know what are your favourite countries, how much will it take you to live there, how can you make lots of money and at the same time have the time to live there...from 18 to 25 should be discovery time, then from 25 to 30..you go hard on the business shit, sacrificing yourself..when you become 30, you may be wealthy enough to just travel around the world. I cant see a dude who smartly invested from young years and still get to his 40's broke as fuck. Thats just a no no.

good thread..
i have spent alot of years living overseas (europe, south america, asia) making jackshit money but having a wild time. it all left me with nothing but super memories...
now i have come home and am getting my shit together re finances etc. i will sacrifice 3 or 4 years of my life but am hoping i will be bettter off in the long run.
if i had my time again i would sacrfice my twenties to become super well off and then head overseas instead of the other way around.
the guy on 8k in the states will be beter off in the long run..the flipside to that is who know when u r gona get hit by a bus-u got to live ur life tot he fullest
its hard
