From the In Box: Today Is My Birthday
Not to worry, dude! Be happy, and look forward to being almost all the way out of your 20's, the decade of hell: I'd say about 75% of the people I know who got married in their 20's are now divorced; from all reports most young folks who recently made their first million before the age of 25 saw it vanish in a puff of smoke before the age of 28; a messy apartment is a point of pride of an active and involved life; and being a whippersnapper is overrated. Better to be solid, certain, smart, and a grownup doing good work that you care about, I say! Cheers! -- Tom Hopkins
