No regrets
A reason study on regret (https://studyfinds.org/the-road-not-taken-what-do-americans-regret-the-most/) nearly one third of baby boomers shared that they have regrets. Some of these regrets go way back more than thirty years and they still think about them more than three times a month. That is baby boomers, but what about younger people? Millennials report that they have regrets too. Some of these regrets include spending too much money, fighting with friends or family, and not speaking up for themselves. Notice that making a move or buying a house isn’t some of the top reasons for regret. In fact, only seventeen percent of those surveyed expressed regret over moving to a new area. This compares to half the people regret spending too much money.
