    Rich or young?

    Would you rather be aged 50+ and have a £million in the bank, or ~20 and have just average savings? Average health for both for that age, etc, and no good thinking you could make a £million with what you know now etc, your chances of getting rich or having a good job will be average too.

      Old chinese saying says:

      A wise man never wishes to be younger


      Then again, old chinese saying says:


      Man who sneezes without handkerchief takes matter into his own hands.

      Oh, I’m sorry….I seem to be lost. I was looking for the sane side of town. I’d ask you for directions, but I have a feeling you’ve never been there and I’d be wasting my time.

        What fun can you have when you're old and jaded - none I can tell you (from experience)!

          Same here, but I would like to have as much experience as I have now.

              CyberTory, I think you'd be better off as an average 20 year old

              The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

              But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                At least you'd have the luxury of being able to NOT choose to work in IT
