a. I would have gone to college.
b. knowing what I know now, I would have enlisted in the Coast Guard and hopefully been stationed at a place where I could have started college part time.
c. I loved being a History major, but would not have had the maturity and self-discipline to do an accounting major at that point in my life.

All that being said, there would have been quite a bit I wouldn't have done...so at the end of the day, I guess I turned out alright...

Jogs an old memory....
When the draft during Viet Nam war went lottery for the first time I knew a student named Pat whose birthday was #1. He was toast. So, instead of being drafted he went into the Coast Guard with a long commitment. He was a tiny nerd but an amazing math genius. He took Calculus I,II, III and IV his freshman year and aced all of them.
I have no idea what the guard did with him.
