For me it was not studying enough in high school.
>>222119319i used to think that i shouldn't live a bad lifehowever, after becoming an adult and looking around, i realized that all successful people were bad people
MD in Radiology. Studies purely fuelled by fucked up parents and circumstances. What I regret is giving too much of a shit about people in my own expense. I can't help it I can't say no and I am too empathetic to pathological levels. Also workaholism to avoid drinking myself to death but I am working on that recently.
>>222119438Blud has entered his villain arc frfr :skull:>>222119552Yeah I also have the same problem. Growing up my parents always taught me to help people and now I sometimes even value other people more than myself. It's bad.
Not coming in when she aske me to
>>222119815I think it's unfortunately part of growing in to a mature doctor who doesn't give a shit about his patients and I am just wrangling myself in the other direction. Life is a bitch innit?
>>222119319I don't know. I didn't really start to try at life until I was 22.Even then, I am so goated that I am just naturally good at anything I put my mind to.I think the biggest mistake I made was not buying doge coin when I was aware of it for at least 6 years before it hit record highs. I would have been a literal millionaire with minimal effort. But it's chill, because I am almost a millionaire (~£200K off) at 26 with some effort.
>>222119319Yeah shit ripples down through life doesn't it. That being said I still don't want to learn math
>>222119319No idea, I don't dwell on regrets. I act assuming I'll commit a lot of mistakes as I go but as long as my peace is not disturbed the mistakes don't really matter
I went to a trade high school and switched to theater
spending all my free time on my computer since age 9
>>222119319Being born
my biggest mistake was not buying in 2009 when i had 15k euros in cash after doing "civil duty" in Germany. I also inhteritard 90k like 6 years ago but i only spent like 15 into gold. I should have put all my savings and all my money into gold i would be rich now
>>222119319Not saving up more money while I lived with my parents. I had about 15 grand saved up before I moved out and figured that would cushion any extra expenses for awhile if anything came up while I was working full timeThen covid happened and it ended up draining everything since I lost my job because of that retarded lockdown the year I moved out of my parents. Probably could've had 25k before I left but I wanted to get a cheap work car for my commutes and a new pc which ended up dropping it down to 15k. Then after covid it was nothing
waiting way too long to start hrt
>>222119552is it a direct pipeline to becoming a radiologist from day one of uni like they used to do back in the sovietslop days or do you first get your MD and specialize in radiology afterwards (or something inbetween)?
>>222119319honestly i have very little regrets since most things that i dislike about myself or my life were/are out of my control
>>222119319>For me it was not studying enough in high schoolJust like me.
>>222119319I can't blame myself for anything. All of the actions I take are based on calculating their most likely outcomes and their returns of investment, based on the knowledge and past experience I had at the time. I have never made any impulsive or risky decisions. I'm essentially an AI
I have a bachelor's degree in fine art
>>222126278something very german about this. I know that irl, you would absolutely insist on doing something in an insanely impractical, expensive or overcomplicated way, and you would choose that as the hill to die on. like you're so convinced of this that you couldn't consider any other way. but I guess there's something admirably fascinating about it as well
Not hanging out more with my dad before he died
>>222126504The most important parts are>based on the knowledge and past experience I had at the timeand >I have never made any impulsive or risky decisionsThe goal is to minimize risk and uncertainty. I didn't say I did everything perfectly, far from that.
>>222126794was my tone too accusatory
>>222119319The biggest mistake anyone can make is getting hung up on their past. Dwelling on it is not gonna change anything. Let it go. Move on.
>>222126645damn nigga iktf....
>>222127040trvclear wisdom
Leaving the soldiers I commanded for 4 years straight to study in uni, they never blamed me and they supported me, but I still feel that I abandoned them when they needed me the most. Felt even worse when one of them was injured and I'm sure it wouldn't have happened if I was there to protect him.
>>222126827Yes, as if I'm extremely stubborn and would never change my ways. Your post is somewhat right, however if you (in that situation) made a different suggestion, the factor that you might know better than me becomes part of the equation. Which could very well lead to me making a different decision. Also the learning experience, or the bonding experience of finding something out together is a factor
>>222119319>For me it was not studying enough in high schoolI used to think this but actually me being a truant kid in high school turned out to be a good thing financially. I know people who went to good school but now have 6 figure student loan debts. Meanwhile I make an OK salary, have a decent investment portfolio and no debt. Probably bad for my social life but it's not like going to university was going to cure my social awkwardness.
start drinking and smoking at 13, make friends with idiots, leaving education early, not going to college, not going to university, not getting a job. My whole life is a mistake just one mistake after another
>>222127163I don't know you and you don't know me, this is an anonymous website. I guess all I'm saying is it seems like a common experience with germans that they can sometimes come across as inflexible and was playing with the idea that maybe it could be about seeing everyone else as less rational
>>222127438Yeah you're probably right about that. Actually I consider myself more open to new ideas, as compared to other Germans
>>222119319dropping school due to bullying, never get a job, bought an xbox one, became a weeb, etc.>>222127156don't feel sorry for war criminals
I ghosted all my friends right when high school ended. I don't even know why to be honest it kind of just happened so fast and by the time I realized what an idiot I was being it was already too late. People move on. So now I have zero friends in my 30s.
>>222119319I did make many mistakes but that is not important. What is important is that now I have a wonderful wife and a daughter. Were I to change the slightest detail in my past, I could have not achieved my current outcome.I regret nothing at all.
>>222119319Getting kicked out of the military for a second time.
I haven't made any really big ones yet, just awkward social interactions. Sometimes really awkward, but in the grand scheme of things that's fucking nothing. Some of you niggas out there seem like you're having a really rough go of it.
>>222119319Going to graduate school for a meme degree that made me even less employable than I already was.
>>222122372taking so long to even consider that I was mentally female
>>222128091If you ghosted them it was probably for a good reason. I hated my high school classmates and a couple years after finishing I too had the feeling that maybe I fucked up by ghosting them until I randomly met some of them later again and reminded myself why I hated them. Some people don't change I guess. Yea it sucks being lonely but I think in most cases it really is just about shitty circumstances and being in an environment where you just don't belong
>>222119319Being too afraid to show any weakness to my family and not asking for help when I needed. It alone made me become what I am today.
>>222119319Mistakes are fiction, we're biologically predestined to be what we are and none of your free will cope can change itIt was always over, your input was irrelevant
>>222129386Even if something is fictional, it doesn't mean it isn't real. We need these fictional concepts, that's why we still use them.
>>222119319Porn and fap habit
>>222119319Selling 12 bitcoin when it was worth less than $100
>>222129655
Uncountable amounts of options, don't even know where to start. Okay I'll go with this one: I should've went for some ez degree that didn't require studying like English major or some shit like that. Also this >>222122161
>>222119319>What was the biggest mistake of your life in your country?being bornI don't think there ever was any hope for me, way too many bad defaults
>>222119319The biggest was neglecting the kindness people showed in school. I was that quiet "smart" (but not really) antisocial kid that didn't want to talk to anyone. That behaviour became hard to change as now I still struggle to look people in the eye during conversations, remember names, or manage to keep a conversation going. I've definitely given a bad impression on my whole cohort, but I'll see if I can muster the courage to show a point of difference in our next reunion, particularly expressing my own interest about where these people are at now >inb4 they're all married with kids etc That aside, other big regrets include>Discovering margin trading and losing it all>Not keeping university connections>Not getting into running soonerAs they say, get knocked down seven times, stand up eight
>>222119319Not trying enough in high school and uni
>>2221224616 years for MD, masters in healthcare. Then another 5 years of residency.
>>222119552Isn't that a really good specialization though? You can literally immigrate anywhere you want with that kind of skillset and qualifications, Australia definitely let's Radiologists immigrate easily
>>222120523Wtf do you do?>t. 26 year old with a net worth of 5000 dollars to my name
>>222130807I tried going to US but unless you are brown from Mumbai university they don't want people like me.
>>222119319Not putting any effort in during high school, not selling my LINK when it was ATH, NEETing the first 4 years after highschhol.
>>222119319not getting serious with one of the 3 gf's i had. i was serious at the time, but not serious serious, i didnt think this is it im gonna marry this one and start a family. i though i would be more serious a few years later and perhaps land a better woman by then but that never happend. and now i will die alone.
>>222130771>struggle to look people in the eyethats not a big deal, im like you and yet im an authority in my field of work. im antisocial af and everyone know it, so when i say something everyone know i mean it and im dead serious about it. that means a whole lot more than being a cringe and creepy eye-starer.part of my antisocial way is because i read peoples emotions and desires instantly and i dont want to deal with it, it gives me an emotional overload so i avoid people. but in cases where i have to its a skill that can be used to dominate meetings and conversations.
>>222121042Based outlook, but also >>222121135real biggest mistake there
>>222130831I'm actually American Australian myself, just come here, it's like all the good parts of California but without the ongoing stupidity. The US has really shat the bed imo, I still miss New England because I'm a Trve Son of Skyrim and like winter sports, but I can't deal with the medical bullshit, shit labor rights, etc...Isn't anywhere else in Europe a good option too? Surely MD salaries in like, Denmark or the Netherlands can't be *that* bad.
Smoking that first joint. It started a slippery fucking slope that ruined my late teens and most of my 20s
>>222119319thrust her
>>222131092I am sitting comfy with 2700 euroshekel per month. But I am just entertaining the idea of building a mansion. Yurop is limited by languages, I am thinking of hiring a German tutor.
>>222127040>>222121042based wise monkey
>>222130771How do you get into running? That shit so boring
>>222130513That wouldn't have been worth much. My sisters studied English and they struggle to find work. They both have masters degrees and say most employers don't even care if you have a degree. They do content writing and it's not something that has a lot of job security and the alternative are teacher jobs which suck and pay like shit
>>222130771>I still struggle to look people in the eye during conversations, remember names, or manage to keep a conversation going.These are all about practice. The more you do them, the easier they become. Keep pushing yourself, don't hide in your comfort zone. It's probably like running or any sport.
>>222131269>leave comfort zone>have panic attack
>>222131314Unironically also a matter of practice. And help from mental health professionals (meds, cognitive behavioral therapy, etc)
>>222131402I had to be put on 9 month meds regiment due to generalized anxiety disorder and panic attacks. God I fucking hate living but I won't KMS just to spite the people that hate me.
>>222131431>I had to be put on 9 month meds regimentBut now you're better, I assume?
>>222131230No it's very fun, you increase your mileage every week and get to explore the world instead of being confined to a room. Then, you see some familiar runners and enjoy the scenery each time. With or without earphones could be the reason you might find it boring, but it's a great activity to keep fit while touching grass
>>222131177did you thrust too hard and kill her?
>>222131476Much better. I lucked out on getting appointed with a doctor of science. If not they would have put me on a pig useless alcoholic regiment while I don't care about alcohol and just used it as self-medication.
>>222119319not thinking of an actual lifepath while at the same time not enjoying school years, so I unironically got the worse of both
>>222131511nah, she was just batshit crazywe say "Nella pazza? non lo metto."
>>222131187German should be easy for a Lithuanian, you guys got cases too right?
>>222131478I think I have earphones fatigue (and definitely got tinnitus lol), but nowadays I genuinely relax more just biking around without any music or podcast playing. It's like meditation, just you and the cardio
Not killing myself. Life never improved after that date
Not networking at all in college, studying an useless degree, missed opportunities because i was oblivious even when someone was telling me they were giving me an opportunity i didn't realize and thought they were just being condescending. Same thing with women too many missed chances where the woman was practically begging me to have sex with her but I either didn't realize or was afraid
>>222131266That's probably true for now, but back when I was a late teenager knowing English was still somewhat demanded and prestigious, at least around these places. And that would still be better than dropping out countless times simply because I have social anxiety and zero inner motivation to study the needful. Also what you call a shitty pay can be decent money in Armenia, so if I could've find a remote online platform to teach to Chinese and Indians I'd make more than the national average. I know a couple of English majors who make very good money: they are the exceptionally good ones yeah, but still. My point is I wouldn't be a socially paralyzed outcast like I am now, probably. Also also, school teacher for elementary/middle term classes is not that bad. The payment itself sucks yes but working with kids is so much better and easier than with adults who all suck. And you can always make additional money from tutoring.

>>222131187>2700that's piss poor pay for a radiologist wtf
>>222119319>For me it was not studying enough in high school.same. all of my schoolmates who did well in school are working in AI/ML in silicon valley making obscene amounts of money
>>222126278and where has that led you? are you successful?
>>222135662whats your ed like? can you not get hard at all? i've only had sex twice and couldn't cum because i'm on finasteride. i would rather keep my hair than have a functioning penis honestly
>>222135928Unreliable dick, anxiety makes it x10 worse
>>222135928>keep my hair than have a functioning penis honestlyAlso understandable
>>222135869Career and education wise? YeaSocially? Absolutely not
>>222135928>. i would rather keep my hair than have a functioning penis honestlyWeak mentality. My based great uncle was 100% shiny bald but died having a heart attack because he took Viagra at the age of 77 to fuck a 24 year old (I saw her, she was pretty!)
