New to tigerdroppings and wanted to say hello. I enjoy listening to people(older typically) talk about the past so I figured I would ask this question. If you are younger use 18.

I am older than 25, and I was not a traditional student. With that said, I would tell myself not to settle for the first job out of college. To be patient.

At that age should have gone back to school for an engineering degree.

Don't make your Dick a slave out of you. At 25 no kids, at 32 I had the 3 I have. While I wouldn't change having my kids, I would have saved money better along the way.

Quit that dead end job now instead of waiting two more years! Don't worry, things will turn out way better! Also, bump up that 401K bitch!

I would tell my 25 yr old self just one thing. In 2003, don't buy the house in Lakeview, go to Metairie instead. Then you can move to Orleans after 2005.
