How would this forum perceive you, and how would your outlooks be different (if at all) if you were posting on this forum as your former 18-21 year old selves.


  • What were your priority's when you were younger?
  • Did you even care about starting a business?
  • Would you be conservative and humble in your posts?
  • Would you be the type who consistently told everyone how awesome you are, and how easily your going to make a billion dollars?

For those who are on the other end of the bracket. How do you think this forum will perceive you 10 years from now?
