Being conned into paying $700 into a “modeling agency”. I’m 5 foot tall, folks. I’m not going to be a model. But I was dumb enough to think so.

Idk probably put everything on a credit card and accrued like 30k of credit card debt at age 25 and couldn’t pay it back.

I messed my credit up in my 20’s too and spend my late 20’s having to recover from that. Dumb credit cards and loans smh worst thing I ever did

Def learned my lesson. Got it all paid off in 2020, but I still have like 60k of student loans that I’m sitting on.

I feel you. I’m 31 now but paid what I could back and had to default on a couple cards and let my credit recover over time. Sucks when banks don’t want anything to do with you lol

Not investing in my 20s. I wish I started investing right out of college. I'll still reach my financial goals, but I have to save/invest orders of magnitude more than had I started a lot earlier.

What type of income did you have in your 20’s?
