looking for Advice to help me sort myself out as a 24 year old.

Hey everyone, I’m 24 and just looking for some honest advice.

I work full time right now, but it’s not in the field I’m studying. I’m about to finish my diploma in financial services, which I’m proud of, but at the same time I feel like I could be doing a lot more with my life.

It also feels like a lot of people around me have some kind of financial support from family, and I don’t have that. I’ve had to figure everything out on my own, and sometimes it makes me feel like I’m behind or moving slower than everyone else.

Another thing is I’ve never really traveled or taken a vacation. I haven’t left the country since I moved here about 20 years ago, so I feel like I haven’t really experienced life the way others have.

I’m trying to get my life together and move in the right direction, but it’s been hard figuring everything out alone.

If you were in my position at 24, what would you do?
