I’m 74. I Wasted My Life. Don’t Make The Same Mistake.

Описание: Submission by a 74-year-old woman who did everything "right"—marriage, kids, house, being “good”—and still ended up empty, alone, and wondering if she ever truly lived. In this video, she breaks down the quiet trap of chasing approval, following the rules, and building a life that looks perfect on the outside but isn’t yours on the inside. If you’re young and you feel yourself choosing safety over truth, this is the wake-up call you need—before you reach the age of “what if.”

This is straight, no-sugarcoating perspective from someone who’s lived long enough to see what truly matters. Don’t spend years learning it the hard way. Take the lesson now, avoid the same mistakes, and make better choices while you still can.

About Young vs. Old

This channel shares candid, no-fluff conversations shaped by people in their 60s, 70s, 80s, and beyond—stories about the choices they regret, the mistakes that cost them the most, and the lessons they wish they’d learned earlier. Each week brings a new perspective, but the same core themes keep showing up: life, love, time, and what matters when everything else falls away.

Topics include: wisdom from older adults, common regrets and how to avoid them, priorities and time, relationships and family, career and success, health and aging, mortality and meaning, living with intention, and the advice they’d give their younger self. Don’t spend decades learning these lessons the hard way—learn from people who already paid the price.
