The main things I learned:

- don't smoke. total waste of health and money.

- don't drink/hang out in bars. total waste of time and money

- make an earnest attempt at becoming a professional BMX racer or late night talk show host or whatever your REAL childhood dream was before spending too much time programming the internet.

- make a lot of friends

- if a girl doesn't sleep with you after the 3rd date, don't call her back

- always have about $30 grand in a bank account somewhere. this will give you the peace of mind to not feel pressured to stay in a job that you hate
