What’s one thing you wish you had started doing earlier in life?

This isn’t necessarily a simple one for me to answer. But it is the first thing that popped into my head when I read the prompt. Perhaps at another time I will go into more detail about the ins and outs of it. But that isn’t today.

Looking back, I truly wish I started saving, or even understanding the concept of saving, money. It might seem pretty shallow or materialistic. But in my younger years, I spent money like there was some endless supply. I got myself into a lot of trouble as a result.

I did recover. Mostly anyway. but I still struggle a bit with it from time to time. Also, I’m not saying that I should have hoarded every nickel. But I would have liked to have better managed my finances.
