> You really think 20 year olds are that immature?
You will think that too when you reach 40.
> Additionally, when you are young, your financial decisions should be riskier. It's actually the smart thing to do.
Only if you ended up winning. If you lost, then it was the stupid thing to do.
- astura 6y ago>You will think that too when you reach 40 Oh please, get off your high horse. I'm only a couple years away from 40, many of my friends have adult children, and I don't think the average 20 year old is some drooling idiot who can't handle life. Most 20 year olds are smarter, have more self control, and more financially savvy than my parents, who are in well into their 60s.
- jusssi 6y agoI don't think there's a high horse here. It's just how life works. If you've truly managed your early twenties so well, that looking back now with more perspective you don't see anything you could have handled much better, you can congratulate yourself for being a rare specimen. I, personally, am looking forward to my 60s to understand what I'm doing wrong right now. > Most 20 year olds are smarter, have more self control, and more financially savvy than my parents, who are in well into their 60s. This might be a regional thing. Around here, statistics show that more and more young people are getting their finances in a state that's difficult to recover from before they reach 30.
