I'm 26, going 27 next year, and I see all my friends getting married, doing well in their work, but I feel like I haven't really grown up. Is it normal to feel so lost and behind?

Medically, actual cognitive maturity is about 26 years old.

Everyone has self doubts. Different people show it differently. Some may not have self doubt at all and it is always someone else's issue.

Don't worry, everyone have their own time.

I also feel like this sometime, but everyone live in their own time frame. I think I should not compare with other lives.

Smell the roadside roses, be in the present, and have a gratitute diary. Dont spiral into the negatives.

I think it's important not to tag yourself to a timeline.

I did a huge career switch when I was 34...

It's so unfair to see people get jobs through referrals and friend recommendations while I'm here working so hard to prove myself and get a promotion. I feel there's no point to stay here anymore?

I am a 28 year old guy who's aiming to get married in the next 5 years. I am new to investing as well, could you advise me an investment type that could earn me decent returns within 3-7 years?

I'm currently Year 2 in university and my peers are already investing and I feel like I'm lagging behind them because I'm not investing. I do want to be rich but is investing for everyone?

I've stopped working since I had my last child 16 years ago. I'm a housewife. I am in my mid-50s now, would like to get a job to earn some cash but am scared as I'm not good with tech. Please help?
