One advice I would like to give as a 31 year old to 20 year old kids is: Save up. This may not seem like having any connection with career or startups etc at first. But only if I had saved up last 10 years, I would have a lot better safety net to quit my job and start something of my own. Not that I would not do it now but it would have been nicer to have a better padding. It is simple. If you have entrepreneurial itch as a 20 year old, you cannot have the lifestyle of a regular 20 year old who spends most of what they make (not generalizing necessarily but you get my point). I bought a BMW convertible 4 years ago since I could afford it. I did not think about saving that extra money instead and keep my old car which was btw a 2006 Honda. So you see the point. Today, I only drive my wife's car since I can commute to work using public transportation. Just my 2 cents.
