He explains why the twenties matter, and how to make the most of them.

If you dont like the answer, now is the time to change course. Surely the 20s are for experimenting, but not just with philosophies(人生观) and vacations and substances(物质). The 20s are your best chance to experiment with jobs and relationships. Then each move can be more intentiona
