Glorious Languish - 10 years later

[merithyn]

I had a negative net worth of about three hundred grand back then. 

I don't see how that's possible.

Student loans.

[MadImmortalMan]

And a mortgage, credit cards and no assets with net value, yeah.

Ever owned a house, dude?

In 2003 I had just come back from Sarajevo and moved to Prague in the fall. I was working on my bachelor thesis.

Ten years on, I've held several jobs since finishing my master degree, lived in Stockholm, been promoted into management at my current company, met a nice girl, bought a big flat with her, had a kid (10 months now), gone on paternity leave and stopped posting on Languish.

[Phillip V]

Will you marry her?

Good to see you again, man, it's been a long time.

10 years ago- 16 year old. Studying for my GCSEs, full of hope for the future, the world was my oyster, it was just a question of what field I would choose to study and make amazing strides forward in. Dangerously low on the BMI scale.

Now- Teaching 16 year olds. Failure in life, not even sure of being able to scrape a living in the future, it is a grim looking place for me and the world at large.  Towards the top end of a healthy weight.

[Phillip V]

Is teaching 16-year-olds bad? They are still malleable enough that you can improve them, right?

Howdy bogh.  All except that end of posting on Languish seems really nice.

Hello all. Hope all is well.

And yeah, I need to make a decent women out of her...

[The Brain]

10 of your Earth years, eh? Well I'm sure something has happened.

[Iormlund]

It's been an awful ten years.

[The Brain]

It's been an awful ten years.

I think the OP is talking about outside of Languish.
