At 25 (almost 25 years ago), I was running a restaurant, working about 70 hours per week and had my first child on the way. No way I would've had the time or energy to do any of this, regardless of income/credit score. I work a lot less now and the kids are grown, so this has been a nice way to do some traveling. Off to San Francisco for 10 days on Friday.
