I know they say it’s never too late to turn your life around, but I am 22 years old, is there still a chance for me to actually be successful and live a comfortable life? I regret not going to college now and I want to go back but feel too old.

I'm 21 and I am going as a university transfer this fall

I feel like a fucking dinosaur and I really regret not going straight to University at 18 and actually be a freshman on campus straight out of high school

I guess this is something that we missed out on, but to be fair 3-4 years is not THAT big of a difference

I went to a college for 2 years and I met people who were 18-19 and without the knowledge of age, you couldn't actually tell that there was a 2 to 3 year age gap.

The difference is mindset, I guess I was alot more jaded then 18 year Olds, but we are literally part of the exact same generation. It won't be THAT bad. I won't lie that some people will go dude ur 22 haha thats crazy but they will not look at u in the same way they see the 40 year old going back for his 2nd degree

Next year you're going to be 23

I've accepted this and people have told me the same thing

We are not THAT old, just experienced 18 year Olds

But to be honest when I turned 21 I felt like I was eligible for retirement.
