I think the only thing I might regret in old age is that I didn’t do a frivolous degree like Music Production or Fashion Design and end up in some glamorous lifestyle in London, taking loads of drugs with celebs and flying from Miami to Ibiza every weekend. Instead I live in the suburbs, work in a bank and spend my evenings watching The Traitors and playing sport ![Face with tears of joy :joy: 😂](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/joypixels/emoji-assets@5.0/png/64/1f602.png)
I think doing anything because “you might regret not doing it” is really stupid. I actually really disagree with the saying “you can only regret what you didn’t do”. Firstly if you didn’t do something it’s hard to imagine what could have happened, so it’s hard to regret it. Like with my dream fashion/music lifestyle, in reality I’d live in a grotty flat making no money and slogging my guts out only to be “irrelevant” and unemployed by 30. And if you DID do something and it went wrong (like breaking my teeth rollerblading), it’s very easy to imagine not having done it, as that would be the status quo and your normal life.
