If I had one wish from the genie, it would be this:

To reset my life to 18 (and go back to 1986) but knowing everything I
know now.

Some mistakes were unavoidable and/or I could not avoid them again
because it would be too much for my basic character and intelligence.

But wow, all the stuff I could do so much better knowing what I know
now!
