I own property, and I'm 33. You can get there if you want it. I had to go back to school at 29 to start a new career, but it was worth it to put myself in a good financial position.

Do you own property or does your bank?:)

I love this. You knew what you had to do to get what you wanted, and you went out there and did it.

Not everyone is in a position to go back to school and start a new career, even if they wanted to. Of course, that doesn't mean they shouldn't try, but 'try' does not mean 'succeed' even when you do everything right (which nobody does)
