Just a few I would say to myself. Lol

Don’t waste time with that bad employer.

Don’t go to the bars.

Move to Wyoming or Colorado and do it now while you can.

Get rid of the Dodge Dakota NOW.

Don’t tell ANYONE where you hunt or hunted. In particular, don't talk to the guy from Denver (in the best OTC elk hunting spot you have) who is apparently friends with 40 groups of guys from Illinois. Just keep walking right past him. Don't even stop. Don't even say hello. If you must talk to him, tell him you didn't see shit and you hate that unit, and you are leaving for better hunting.

Stop wasting your spare time learning to play the guitar. It’s stupid and nobody really cares.

Start moose hunting Ontario now and go every year because In 15 years you won’t be able to get an outfitter tag….(I hunted there six times in a row and now you can’t hardly get a tag and the moose population is in the toilet. )

Buy a side by side before the price jumps to $25,000 OR buy 2 new Honda 4x4 4 wheelers.

Don’t waste money re-building minibike engines.

Don’t sell that reflex express bow.

Don’t buy that house in Pennsylvania.

Dont take 4 people on your boat to the Patuxent River. Tell 2 of them to stay at home.

Don’t get involved with that bitch from Rochester New York. And as far as that matters, don’t even bother dating any girls that have a name that starts with the letter A. It won’t work out for you. Amber, Alyssa, Amy, Amy, Ashley….etc et….trust me on this one.

If you bump it up to 25 years ago I got one big one.
“Why buy the cow when the milk is free?”
Don’t marry that woman that will eventually be your exwife.

So, what would be your advice to yourself 20 years ago?

20 years ago I was 14 years deep in a bad marriage.
It took me another 7 years to finally make the step to the Big D.

If youre in a bad relationship, dont wait to get out.
Dont wait for the kids to grow up, dont stay together for the kids.
The kids will be fine.

You'll go through a rough patch but you'll be better off.
