I think I would have continued on with my Marine Biology Degree rather than switching to Communications..

Just would have had to work harder at the chemistry

I would have retired 2 years ago, buuuut. I would have been in during desert storm part deux (the first one was enough for me) and the retirement isnt really enough to live off of. I tripled my military pay my first year out and have never looked back.

I would have found my true love earlier and pursued a career as a race driving pro to name a couple of many.

If you have no regrets, you need to get out more.

In reply to Toyman01:

I don't know much I really like my life, but I've often thought about a few of the choices I've made and how they really changed my life. One relationship in particular, I'm pretty sure would have made a huge difference.

If we're going to keep this car-oriented, I really wish I had found a way to hang onto the '71 Demon I had and more recently, my '91 Integra. Keeping the Integra would have saved me a lot of headaches to this day...

Beat the lazy out of my young, school age self. I got bored in school and had no outlet. Seriously.

This thread is made of the stuff that haunts my existence.

I would have started a business fresh out of college while I was still living under my parents' roof.

Otherwise, I would have done the same a year ago, when my wife was making near-great money--restructuring has resulted in a $20k paycut.

That said, I'm on the edge of doing something on my own very soon. Just need to take the leap. Been in the retail vortex WAY too long and I need fulfillment.

Can't say I would have majored in communications. That degree netted me nothing in life and opened zero doors. Sad that it was useless.

I'd have hit on Curmudgeon's daughter at the Lemons Race.

I would have bought that 289 Cobra for $3000 in 1969.

I would have done ROTC instead of enlisting.

That's about it really.
