My dear friend has a "things to do before turning 30" list
Last year, she attempted to try out for the Knicks City Dancers...this coming year, the big 30, she is going to run the New York City Marathon on November 5th on the "Team Against Childhood Obesity"....her goal for herself is to beat Oprah's time.
I'm 28...I think I should make a list! Nah...I'll live vicariously through her. LOL.

Re: My dear friend has a "things to do before turning 30" list
Originally my goal was to make 6 figures and be married by the time I was 30.
I am 31 now.
Not making 6 figures-- but, I am not THAT far and I am married.
There is a bunch of stuff I want to see and do-- I think it's about taking the time to live your life.
I just heard a great Abraham Lincoln quote...
"It's not the years in your life, but the life in your years."

Re: My dear friend has a "things to do before turning 30" list
I wanted to finish my doctorate before I turn 30, and I am on track to finish the May before I turn 30 in July! I am also going to Europe after I finish the doctorate to celebrate. I don't have much else. I am writing a book about my dissertation topic, but I doubt it will be published before I am 30....
I turn 28 next week.

My roommate from college had the million dollars in the bank by 35. I am so proud to say she succeeded. Ambition really does pay off!

Re: My dear friend has a "things to do before turning 30" list
I am 39 I don't have a list.
I have accomplished a great deal in my life though.
I think you have to keep making lists in your life..real or imagined to keep you going and stop you from being complacent.

great point!!! i think my main "wish for life" is to remainy happy and healthy....and get a little wealthy!
But seriously speaking, having a sister with a disability and now seeing my dad thankfully recover from prostate cancer has taught me what is truly important, and not to get caught up in the silliness of life.

Re: My dear friend has a "things to do before turning 30" list
Well, I am 30. I own a home, have a flourishing career which comes with great salary and perks, I travel alot, I am married, all of this I achieved before turning 30.
Next year DH and I will start trying for a little bambino. I also hope to become a consultant as of next year. Working only 3 days per week.

Re: My dear friend has a "things to do before turning 30" list
I wanted to finished grad school, have a new car, a home and my first child by the time I am 30. I have the car, I will be done with school in December and I will be a home owner in February. That just leaves TTC but I am only 26 so I have plenty of time.

Re: My dear friend has a "things to do before turning 30" list
I have a list. I started it 2 years ago. It's funny because not one thing on that list pertains to how much money I want to be making. Anyway, every so often I take out the list and see what I have accomplished. Some of the things on there are far out and crazy, silly and stupid, not major life altering things, but things that sometimes you miss in life because you often get to busy to stop and smell the roses.
