Probably the youngest guy here

[Untamed_fast]

My name is Donovan and I'm 18

I read the millionaire fastlane by accident("Accident???"-Yes I know) when I was trying to read Millionaire 90 days by Ben Stewart(Much inferior book). Now I'm on the last 100 pages of Unscripted and I gotta say they are both great books.

I graduated High School a few months ago (barely an achievement) and do not intend on going to college yet. Currently my aspirations revolve around real estate and from what I know (not much) that doesn't require much formal education. If I do end up going to post secondary school, I'm looking at either marketing or business courses(or would marketing be part of business).

We'll see I'm still here in years to come and if I've successfully solved a need(still looking).

What were you up to at 18?
What do you wish you knew?
Biggest mistakes?

Let me know in the comments
