At 25 I would already have blown all my savings on basically not working partying and traveling. Actually that's pretty much what I did.. But I crafted that lifestyle for myself specifically after having a pretty lonely miserable time living in my home city. Shortly after school I was in a sort of similar situation living alone, working in tech, not making new friends, spending weekends with family, not meeting girls etc. I knew some friends who moved to LA, so I disposed of everything I owned and moved out there. I completely stepped out of my comfort zone and lived with a bunch of guys in a fratty situation in Hollywood as it was becoming colonized by hipsters. New friends, parties, women all this stuff I was isolated from back home just became my lifestyle all of a sudden. I bounced around road tripping, went to Hong Kong randomly. Its something that really changed the tempo of my life in a way I would never pass up. I probably set myself back a lot financially and career-wise. I lived in the bay area for a time, I got bored and moved back to LA to party. I turned down tons of business opportunities. Do I regret it? Not really. I'm not rich today at all but I met my wife during that time, all of my best friends. I learned how to balance freelance and life so I have ample free time while still paying the bills. So basically do something that makes you happy. Get out of your comfort zone. Put yourself in the places you'll have the opportunity to make the most out of socially. Reinvent yourself. Its worth it. Just don't blow all your money.
