I was married at 21. First kid arrived when I was 22. My 3 kids will (yeah yeah) be financially independent in about 10 years. I won't even by 50 by then. That's when me and the missus are going to tour the world. 1st class, 5 star.Originally posted by SallyAnne View PostYou are WAY too young to be in a serious relationship anyway. Stay single until you're well into your 30's lad.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

I always wanted to travel the world when I was younger. Now, I want to travel the world first class.

FWIW I did travel the world when I was young, and didn't settle down (and get into computing) until late twenties.Originally posted by TheFaQQer View PostI always wanted to travel the world when I was younger.

In my opinion this way around is preferable because:- You travel 'light' when young
- Opportunities come up and you are free to take them
- Don't need 5 star accomodation
- When you finally settle down you know there is nothing better over the next hill- makes for forming more stable long-term relationships
- It actually gives you a better perspective on the relevance of work during your 'core years'
But the one thing I learned is that travel is not all it's cracked up to be - over riding impression is a world full of people pretty much doing the same kind of stuff - raising families, paying the bills, dreams and aspirations for their kids etc.
Exactly what is going on hereHow fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't thinkComment
