Morning all.

Just a bit of curiosity on this one. Looking at where your career is at now, if you could go back to a younger age, what would you have done instead, if anything?

I'm 23, work as a design engineer. I enjoy the job (most of the time), the employer, and the wages are good.

Still, I often dream about being a pilot. Why exactly I didn't pursue it while I was leaving school I'm not sure, but looking into it now it seems its very expensive to get trained up and takes a very long time. I'm not sure it's within reach of me within my own circumstances.

Curious as to whether with the benefit of hindsight, what people would like to have done instead.
