When you are (well, when many of us are) 18 years old, you don't realize how important these things are without an elaborate future plan previously mapped out. Back then, my focus was more geared towards chicks and wrestling. I figured merely attaining a BA would automatically result in being "fine." And if I got into a financial pickle, "future rico" would be able to handle it.. Well, "future rico" is now "present rico" and "present rico" would give anything to be given the chance to go back and smack "past rico" upside the head. Problem is...even if that were possible, "present rico" doesn't have anything to give.
Stupid...stupid....STUPID!!!!

So remember this when talking to your kids.
HELP them lay out a plan. Don't just throw them into the wild at 18. 18 year olds are generally NOT capable of making sound life altering decisions.
