Thank you. I, for the briefest moment, forgot what the average maturity of GTP was. Now I am reminded.
 
Hmm. I never thought about this.

Some things that comes to mind:

Get married
Get the psychologist license (4.5 years from now)
Own a *Riviera Boattail 71/72 *Aston Martin Lagonda
Get a decent apartment
Drive around Nordschleiffe
Visit: Tibet, Central Africa and the US.

[edit] So, theoretically I could be ready for death before the age of 40:lol:
 
Out of my 'done it' (off the top of my head) catalogue:

Run a marathon.
Climb the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
Attend an Olympic games.

A few things I'd like to do before I die.
Drive past the 140mph mark in a porsche.
Design, build and own my own house (as in no mortgage payments).
Buy my wife a set of 2 carat diamond earings.
Buy a car with cash, then give it to a family member.
Learn to sew properly.
Sail for three days in the ocean.
Go deep sea fishing and catch a fish that outweighs me, three times over.

That's off the top of my head.
