Things I wish I'd done in my 20's

None of that would have mattered. When I was 32 I was in an automobile accident and had a traumatic brain injury. While my survival and continued existence was still questionable all of my assets were liquidated and put in a trust controlled by a family member. A few months later when I woke up everything that I knew, everything I believed in, everything that I depended on no longer existed...may or may not have ever existed. Unless there is physical evidence or a reliable witness I'm not sure of my life prior to 1995. As I was rehabilitated (largely through my own efforts) good financial habits were part of it...but I still had to start from scratch at age 36/37.
