What are things you wish you could tell your past self?

[Addison Snyder]

I'll start with telling my past self to only buying hard weights. I've yet to run into a situation where I wished I had soft weights, and later down the road have wanted/needed hard weights because they are A) more compact and/or B) can be put on webbing

Also inb4 non-scuba related stuff like "don't get married to so-and-such"

"Take up diving. You'll love it"

I didn't start diving until later in life.

 

[Raphus]

"Start diving, dont wait 7 years, after first thinking about it. "

And later: "dive more"

And maybe:" you life will be good, ether way, but you really should study marine biology and live near a ocean"

Is ok to ignore blabbering divers on charter boats, and if they insist on blabbering to you, just tell them to shut the F'up.
And that also counts outside the charters for non-divers.

Should have bought that Microsoft stock when it split the first time. Same with investing in cellular technology after I read the story about Craig McCaw.

Weight myself properly, I was over-weighted for years.

also, .......dont do that, it will hurt......

Anyone who give you 38 pounds of weight is likely trying to kill you. Fire them.

Sticking to scuba.
- Start earlier.
- Start with a BP/W (large SS) with basic harness.
- Always bring some Benadryl on dive trips.
- If you are going to buy tanks for single tank diving, get HP100s (not AL80s).
