mainly I would give him a hug and tell him he's a good and worthy person because that is what he needs the most
I've always had this answer for any of these kinds of questions. I would never say anything to them, but I'd give them a USB flashdrive. In it are a series of documents and pictures. They're of things of importance that I've listed. Things of what to do and not do, people to meet earlier than later and things I've noted.
- you're not being silly, you are a woman and these kinds of thoughts aren't just for "real trans people" (and also you are a real trans person)
- you need to start giving more thought to how your words and actions affect people, or you're going to hurt someone you love
- I know those two nuggets of info are hard to hear and are quite heavy, but I promise that observing them and taking them seriously will mean you live an immeasurably happier life
- buy a bunch of bitcoin with your pocket money. Sell it on December 16th 2016, buy as much as you can with what you got on January 26th 2019. Sell it all on March 13th 2021. Donate half of what you made to stonewall, and use the rest for the house you'll be trying to buy.
Hey, dont join the military. Go to college and do programming. Trust me you want to go onto IT, youll be good at it.
Take a hard Look at your partner, this is the best you'll ever get. Dont fuck it up. Listen to them and go to fucking therapy.
Caring what others think is a waste of your time. Always trust your gut, it was always the best option.
Literally nothing.
Give him a high five and tell him to keep doing what he is doing. Since we invent the time machine, I wouldn't want to fuck that up. Really I wouldn't even visit.
I would however be expecting a visit from my future self, to get the details on how to solve global warming and a bunch of other issues.
I would probably tell myself not to bother with college and suggest I go to a technical school instead. Apparently degrees aren't worth jack shit around here.
Just wait. It'll all work out fine.
"You are going to let that person be upset. It is not your job to fix their feelings"
You're trans, idiot.
Buy Bitcoin then use your fortune to help fix global warming or something else for the good of humanity.
Literally wrote my comment and then scrolled down and two of the points I wrote are exactly what you wrote, thats crazy lol
Sadly some of us don't realize we're trans until well into adulthood.
Sadly some of us don't realize that Bitcoin (while awful in many ways) is worth a fortune until it's 10 years too late. π
Are you me? It would have been so much easier if I'd come out like, 10yrs ago. At least I would have been on my parents insurance.
I'll throw in "stop being afraid of the furry community you fucking dumbass; they're a hell of a lot nicer than your current """friends"""".
I don't think I'm you, and I think it would have been harder for me to come out 10 years ago. The trajectory of my life would be completely different if I had, and my family that's cool with it almost certainly wouldn't have been as cool with it then.
Still, wish I could have gotten on estrogen WAY earlier for more effetmcts U.U Oh well.
Do not like alcohol that much
I'm not sure I would. If I could have avoided the bullshit or done the things that would have optimized my income and wealth, I don't think I would have ended up where I am now. The risk doesn't seem worth it, I would be a completely different person with a completely different life.
Money things, obv
Don't fucking join the Army
You arenβt a fuckup because you werenβt smart enough to protect yourself from getting hurt by others. Your parents are supposed to be looking out for you and they are not. They are to blame, not you.
Invest in you old age: Superannuation or some other savings device. You need to put on as much as you possibly can as soon as you can but this needn't mean you plow all your income into it straight away. Transfer or invest as little as $20 per week initially, you'll never miss it and after a few weeks or months keep increasing the amount till you've reached your ceiling. Reinvest your earnings or dividends, compound interest is a beautiful thing.
Don't become the person you think you'd hate to become haha.
"Convince someone to buy bitcoin for you and hold on to it"
Don't sell your Bitcoin.
Alternately, buy more Bitcoin.
Save as much money as possible;
Short AA at the end of Aug 2001; youβll know when to cover.
In Oct 2001 buy AAPL
In 2008 buy bitcoinβ¦ keep buying, and WRITE DOWN YOUR PASSWORDS, until it hits $100. Donβt worry about it; just do it.
