Redditors offer 30-somethings their best advice on how to turn 40 without regrets

The internet may be made up of millions of anonymous strangers, but those strangers can still share some pretty great life advice. One of the most common questions to come up on Reddit’s AskReddit threads is young people asking their elders how to live regret-free. Thousands of people have weighed in over the last several years, offering advice to people of all ages. Here are some of the shiniest pearls of wisdom from people over 40 to people still in their 30s. “Big goals are just checkpoints and have far less punch in hindsight.” “The day-to-day moments of sitting around with friends, cuddling on the couch, laughing together at a funny joke, those moments burn in memory and hold all of the real importance. Attaining or not attaining goals seems to have nothing to do with happiness. Looking back, some of my biggest failures that seemed so catastrophic at the time, feel meaningless. They are just part of my story. The people I’ve lost, I miss every day. It’s only about the

This Is How People With Full-Time Jobs Can Travel The World

Since I first snuck off as a teenager to work as a beer model (long story) in Vietnam, I’ve been lucky enough to travel widely across many different continents, often on my own, and often with nothing more than a backpack. I’ve driven across Australia, worked in Asia, and learned Spanish in South America. I’ve swum with whale sharks off the coast of Mexico and spent eight days at sea sailing from Panama to Colombia through deserted Caribbean islands, which was incredible, even if there were no life jackets and I spent most of those eight days terrified. For me, backpacking is an amazing privilege. Yes, it does require some financial outlay, but it’s not impossible to save enough to go away for a few months. Yes, you do need to fork out for flights and spending money, but I’ve been able to work in most of the places that I’ve visited when I got there. Think of it as the most fun education you’ll ever receive. Traveling teaches you about the world, about the connections you make with s

A delicious twist on the traditionally fried and breaded dish, this Orange Chicken is so flavorful, healthy, and it's all done in the crock pot! Ingredients 16-ounces skinless, boneless chicken breasts salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste 3/4-cup low-sugar orange preserves ( I like to use the one with pulp in the preserves; adds texture ) 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger, or to taste (I use just a little less than 1/8 teaspoon in mine) toasted sesame seeds Instructions Lightly grease crock pot insert with cooking spray. Place chicken breasts on the bottom of the crock pot, one next to another, and season with salt and pepper. In a mixing bowl, combine orange preserves, soy sauce, garlic and ginger; mix until combined. Spoon or pour over the chicken. Cover and cook on LOW for 5 to 6 hours, or on HIGH for 3 hours. In the meantime, prepare the sesame seeds. In a frying pan, heat the sesame seeds over medi

Korean Fried Chicken Recipe

Unlike traditional fried chicken, which is batter dipped and fried, these chicken wings are tossed in a thin coating of egg white, salt and baking soda then they are dried out in the fridge overnight to be baked in the oven. The result is a super crisp-skinned chicken without the deep-frying, which means an easier clean up and cooking (no constantly checking the deep fryer!). The sauce requires a trip to the Asian grocery store to get gochujang, a Korean chile paste. It’s a deep red fermented chili paste that has a nice deep dark flavor (not too much heat, with a little bit of sweetness). You’ll have to refrigerate the chicken overnight to let the egg white coating dry so keep that in mind if you are planning to make these. Adapted from Maximum Flavor by Aki Kamozawa and Alexander H. Talbot andSerious Eats. [Editor’s Note: Numerous people have asked me where you can get gochujang. Amazon hasgochujang though keep in mind it’s often cheaper to get it at an Asian grocery store if
