Buy bitcoin, then eth, then link. Education is a meme.

I spent my days around that time by getting drunk and going to clubs. Could've easily gotten in early with a couple $100, but I disregarded it because I was stuck in the 'I'm smarter than everyone' dunning-kruger loop. Fuck. At least I got in early on LINK.

First of all, congratulations on not being dead or irreversibly disfigured.

You don't get to walk away from the environment you grew up in unscathed. Good job escaping as early as possible, but this shit will come back to haunt you. Stay strong and see if you can occasionally listen to your emotions instead of berating them like a nuisance. You're not half as bad as you think, despite all the things you think you've done.

dear 18 year old me,
if i were you again, i'd make the exact same choices you did, because at the time I thought I was doing what was best for myself with the information I had. the past is already written, the future is not in your hands, and the only thing you have to worry about is today. do what you think is best. yes you'll make mistakes, and have plenty of setbacks, but those don't matter. most of it is out of your hands anways, because the fates will have their way, with your consent or without it. remember, pessimism only offers the empty consolation of being right, so stay optimistic! enjoy the ride broski
