    Welllllllllll, usually not quite. There’s not much that can happen to truly fuck up a life in an irredeemable way. You can make choices that prevent you from being able to reach best outcomes A, B, or C, but at basically any point you can still achieve good outcome X, Y, or Z.

      Well, it’s still totally possible to irredeemably fuck your life by 20, although you’d have to make some fairly extreme decisions.

        Such as how? Like even if you’ve been sentenced to life in prison, as long as you’re not put in a supermax there are still ways to wind up with some ok outcomes. You can earn some pretty decent privileges like a music player and a tv, you can become a big reader, you can earn a law degree, you can use that law degree to help get innocent wrongly convicted people out of prison, etc.
