What I'm Proud Of Doing In My 20's

Last week was my birthday, so I've turned a new chapter towards *GASP* my 30's. For me, it's not a big deal. We tend to base our lives around a supposed set of events that are supposed to happen in Western civilization, i.e. having kids and living behind a white-picket fence. Our lives happen at different paces with different events. With that being said, I'm reflecting on what I've done in my 20's that I'm proud of.

• Started A Retirement Account: Opening up a Roth IRA is a start towards starting a retired life outside of America. I've also started investing in stocks to help grow my wealth. Granted, the coronavirus response has been less than spectacular, hurting our economy for short-term gains. But I'm still optimistic about the future, which is why I'm investing in my future. I would like to not work for the rest of my life!
  
• Started My Own Website: I plan on getting a new website next summer since I would love to change the format up a bit. However, I'm proud that I've gotten my website out to thousands of people to see. I've even written my own e-books! My hope is to see my website viewed by millions of people worldwide.
  
• Finally Left Michigan For Las Vegas: I'm going to be real with you. I felt like shit when I was in Michigan. I felt like I didn't fit in, i.e. not getting a job with United Shore or not being social enough or dating to start a family. I felt like the ultimate misfit! Last October was when i decided to take the leap and change my life (thank you to Andrew Kopel for getting me on board with the FAN Action Nation, by the way. I am eternally grateful). Granted, there are still some habits that I have from my days in Michigan that I cling to that I should not. However, I am still growing and learning by the day and am in a state with some of the best Mexican food around, something that Michigan doesn't have (sadly).
