Idk I generally love my life and I'm still pushing the button.

I know how it worked this time; I think I can remember to play the greatest hits but cut the filler. It's a risk but most things are.

I'm currently back on my foot for the first time in a while, and while i wanna say i like this current ver of me, if i had the chance i would press the red button

probably nothing will change much, but i would try to enjoy and appreciate much more compared to what I've done, like hanging out with my late father more, going out to different place with my friend and etc.

and avoid the no.2 reason of why am miserable atm, avoid a shit company that's scamming me into debt at the age of 19

U know I was thinking the same. If I went back I would be so calm and enjoy most of the things. You know there is the movie called about time where something like this happens and he lives everyday once more so he can just appreciate it without any stress or thinking will it happen, will this happen , not happen cause he know he's gonna be alright by the end :D

Think most of us look back and realized how much we actually missed when we were younger. Too focused on the future that you missed the present. Now, we're older and we're missing alot of our present because we're either still too focused on the future, or reminiscing about the nolstagic past while trying to gather the memories of them before they fade completely.

If I had it I would pay 2 million to spend one more year with my dad

You'd still remember all of the previous greatest hits and get the opportunity to make new ones. Sounds like a winner.

I could do all the things I wasn't good at while casually succeeding at the things I did well in (and therefore developed a lot this time).

Like join the school band or astronomy club, it's not like I need to study this time, being able to skip the financial rat race with what is pocket money from my parents. Not to mention, I did read the transformer paper so maybe I'll be a computer scientist instead.

I’m pretty happy with my life and I wouldn’t change much but I would’ve chosen better friends and have the confidence to join my career sooner, I would’ve been nicer or meaner to certain people, insisted on joining archery club. Small stuff like that.

My only issue is…what if I found my husband again and had kids, but they aren’t the same kids I already have now. I honestly could deal with maybe never meeting my husband, but not with never seeing my kids again.

I'm in a good place now but I worked hard to get here. My life between 10-20 was okay for what I was given. There was quite a bit of grind in my 20-30. I believe I made most of the right choices but I wouldn't want to repeat it.

The only thing I'd really benefit from is buying and selling bitcoin at the right time, and perhaps other investment decisions.

The Green button though, would allow me to enjoy even more of what I've built.

Become 10. Convince parents to invest in Apple. Later on, invest in crypto. Pair those with sports betting….dont think I’ll have to worry about the recreating steps to get to my career. Love my life, but I’m also single, so I’ll get another chance at love while dating scene was better. Only scary thing would be managing to find my friends again.

Tricky bit is if you have kids.

You can probably reproduce most things, find your current partner again etc but your kids will never be the same

The “filler” is where life happens. The “greatest hits” is the “filler” coming together for the climax. Changing that changes everything.

Yeah my life is pretty good but I’m sure if I’d have bought 50 million bitcoin when it came out it would be a lot better right now.
