One easy change is to NOT LIVE IN THE STUPID SUBURBS.
If you live in a major city the social, career, fitness, cultural and volunteerism opportunities are quite literally endless, and are steps from your door.
When you live in the suburbs you wind up watching reality television and eating shitty food and hating your wife (and your life IMO). My forced year of exile in the suburbs was the most miserable time of my life, but I value it for hammering home that I should never make that mistake again.

It's not all rosy. I have to work much harder to find people who have my political leanings, sense of humor, interests, etc. Thankfully, there are a lot of people in major cities.

Wow you are so edgy. I see why the suburbs aren't wild enough for you. I hope your cravings for adrenaline rushes are being met in the crazy big city. Or more likely you found some bars near your small apartment with thin walls.

It really boils down to different strokes for different folks. I would literally kill myself if I lived in a big city. I live in the country outside Nashville and love that I can go outside at night and hear nothing but the wind, look up at the stars and have peace. I love that I can go to one of the three surrounding lakes or go enjoy some of the beautiful landscapes that Tennessee has to offer. I enjoy places like NYC, but I would feel imprisoned if I lived there.
A quick 20 minute drive and I can experience anything that Nashville has to offer. I lived in downtown Nashville a couple years ago(right on 2nd ave.) and it was miserable.
So, because someone doesn't live in the city that doesn't mean it's for money reasons. That's a stupid fricking stance.

Quit my oilfield job and started my own LLC consulting firm at a very young age. Only been at it less than a month so only time will tell if it was a good move
