Interesting stuff.
Funnily enough I often think about what it would be like being a teenager again. I wouldn't want to just repeat it though, I would want to do it again but with the knowledge and life skills I have now.

you should have listened to your gut feeling and left as soon as that new dreaded dealer joined ur table. as cliche as it might sound, infamous gut feeling is almost always right

Yeah sometimes you wonder if it would have been better if you stayed as a teenager and does not have responsibility and only has to go to school and so on. But growing up has its perks you can go out more often get your own life, do what ever you want and enjoy life too the max whereas teenager you got parents on your back and so. Yeah sometimes gut feeling is all that you need to move out of a table! Because you just felt uneasy and you will not play to your best!

A somewhat misleading title to this thread,I was thinking we were going to hear about some crazy prop bet involving some lemon concentrate. I would love to be a teenager again,at least when you are a teenager you know little but think you know everything,as an adult you know everything but have learnt little.

Having 35 nowadays doesn't make yourself that far from being a teenager as it should be defined in this era we're living in Europe. With the financial crisis, young adults have each time more difficult to get their financial independence in order to stop being teenagers (living with their own money without needing parents help). Some are forced to stop having that life, when parents can't help, but if they can, why not keep using that in our favour, even being older than teenagers. We can always manage our funds in a different way, having a bigger percentage to invest in fast solving future options, like betting.

Yeah being a teenager sounds nice but doing all that stuff teenagers do all over again not so nice The pressure of being a cool kid he lack of confidence with the ladies Everybody telling you what to do and the age restrictions Love to have done that but right now pretty happy with my life

av - I was never a cool kid... wasn't interested in being one. But on the other hand I did have a lack of confidence with the ladies....
Oh wait. Both those things are still true.
Fakiry - So true. I'm closing in on 30, but still feel like a teenager. Only just moved out of my folks house, but I'm back in college in a couple of weeks....

I think that we all would like to go back to our teenage days and rewrite a few wrongs. Some of the decisions i made back then make me cringe now when i think about them. Good days!!!
