    I was asked the Question do I want to Work hard while you are young and Play when you are old or do you what to Play while you are young and Work hard when you get old?
    Unfortunately I was asked this Question when I was in my late 20’s and I had already wasted my late teens and early twenties partying and blowing my money.
    Which one fits you best:

    Work hard while you are young and Play when you are old.

    Play while you are young and Work hard when you get old.

    Work hard while you are young and Play when you are old. It's harder to earn money when you are older. I mean some opportunities may no longer be available when you want to start.

    I think no harm work hard and play hard, sometimes when you are old you don't have the strength to play anymore :)

    for me, Work hard while we are still young and then relax and play when we get old. But that would be a different game. :D

    Everybody in this globe knows that we have to work hard while we're young.
    No doubt about it.

    I think a balance of both is good. You're never too young or old to play and work

    I guess play would mean, enjoy your life like fishing, golfing, traveling, instead of having to work because you had no money to pay for food, rent, etc...

    If you work you will have money, you don't work 24/7. Human beings needs rest and relaxation and doing some fishing won't kill you. Most important is a balance of work and play. Does not mean that if you play you will have no money, work to get the money, play to enjoy yourself.

    You won't be able to play when you are old unless you own playboy mansion and you have your stock of viagra.

    The best way is doing both at the same time such as if you are a fisherman so you can do fishing and enjoy the fishing.. it is fun, isn't it?

    You don't really have to choose between them. Surely you can just play hard and work hard when you are young and old.

    Have a hobby in making money. Same way people like playing games like SIM City, do that with creating profitable web sites and have fun with it

    Nothing worse than seeing someone in their 50s+ in a really nice convertible sports car, it's such a waste when you're that old.

    Youth is wasted on the young, but money is wasted on the old.

    I am starting to grow my hair long in the back so it will flow nicely in the wind while I am driving my cool middle age crisis convertible. :cool:
