The $100 Question: Susan From Raisin Toast Asks What One Life Choice You'd Change

I would have stayed in school and finished my education. I got caught up in my children and didn't finish. I wish now that I had and hope that one day I can go back and finish.

I would have stayed in college and gotten a degree instead of getting married the first time.

Easy one. I got pregnant in my late teens, and not a day has gone by that I haven't regretted the decision that I made.

I would have done what my heart was telling me to do, and not caved to the pressure of my (then) boyfriend, his parents, my parents.

I would have gone to law school when I had the opportunity.

Id practice my euphonium more

Id love myself more for who i was

I wouldve done more to lose weight instead of letting myself go

I wouldnt be such a jerk to people, and enjoy life more

I would change the fact, that I wore parachute pants. Why did I think that was cool?

When I was younger, I didn't always pick out the right makeup. I would change my previous selections.

I'd have finished college.

I would have never eaten junk food.

I would have finished college and got a degree

I would've stayed living in Chicago. I would never have moved to where I am now.

I wouldn't have moved to Chico for three years. I would have stayed in Santa Cruz for that time, and my life would have been easier.

I didn't know how dangerous the sun could be. I stayed in it all day as a teen, and I was really doing damage to my skin. I wish I had been more proactive with my skin.

I'd take better care of myself

I'd take better care of myself

It would probably be investing that money with that thief. Grrrrr.

have drank!

I would change my shyness as a teen. I wish I had been more outgoing, but I was like a wall flower.

That is a hard one, but I'd have to say I wish I had learned how to manage money better. And at 46, I still struggle every day. I will make sure my sons are better prepared than I was.

There are several things I would definitely change, but among others, I would avoid ever going out with a particular boy in college. Bad choice....

I think I would have finished my degree.

We're in the process of making so many renovations to our home now and I really wish we had started years ago.

I wouldn't have left home so early and suddenly.

finished my associates degree, I only need three classes. When I got married and pregnant, I quit. I also would not have moved from the east coast to the west coast, I miss my family : (

I wish I would have joined Weight Watchers and gone to therapy years ago. It would have saved me from a lot of heartache. But I'm happy that I have done those things since then and my experiences have given me a different view on life.

These contests are so much fun!

This is an easy question for me to answer. I wish I had married my husband the first time I had the opportunity to do so. We were going to be married when we were in college, but I got cold feet. I went on to make absolutely awful choices in husbands. Then 32 years after I might have married him the first time, I DID marry him. Best choice I ever made, but I wish we could have all those lost years back!

Went home to stay with my mom and brothers the weekend my brother died instead of staying at my place.

I would of told someone who could have helped me when my parents abused me.

I know this may sound cold, but I would have waited a few years before becoming a mom. I can handle it now, but when I was in my 20's, it was very difficult !

I would change the short, dry, and cold relationship I have with my daughter.

I grew up that way and I should of learned to change that before I instilled it into her. I am working on it every day now but not sure if she and I can meet in the middle.

BUT if I have to choose just one I guess I would have not gotten married, it started a string of events I've been caught in for the last 2 decades! I'm trying to dig my way out but it's proving impossible or at least close to it...

Worry less and live more. I lost a lot of life not living in the moment.

I will look at each situation thoroughly before I leap.
I wish I had learned that in the younger years.

I would not have gotten married, to the man who proposed without a ring, promised but never delivered one, getting married in front of the justice of the peace, and finally NO Honeymoon.

I would not have listened to the wrong people (estranged family) and bought a house.

I would have gotten divorced after the first time my ex-husband was abusive.

I have been free from him since 2004 and never been better. Don't get me wrong there has been rough spots but nothing like when the abuse started.

This is hard I have a few things.

I would not have taken out or applied for more than 1 credit card.

When my life was in the balance I listened to the drs and had a surgery that I would not have done- I would have had the procedure that had much riskier odds and assumed that I wouldn't have died unless I was totally ready.

I live every day with pain which is not that big of a deal, but the lack of energy means that I can't do all the things I want to with and for my kids, and that just sucks.

Other than that, wouldn't change a thing.

I would have chosen to get my home organized many years ago so I wouldn't have lost so much time trying to find everything.

I would have picked a different college najor. There's not much out there for a piano performance major.

I would have gotten my degree in college.

Like many people, I once dated a fellow that I shouldn't have. It pretty much ended badly and I learned some big lessons.

My mom moved to Flordia, i wish I had gone to visit her more. I live in the NW and busy with my kids.

I would have spent more time with my father.

taken better care of my health.

I would have put aside some money and quit my last job before I got fired. The stress of being fired for not being able to keep up my previous level of productivity while pregnant was an emotional rollercoaster and I would love a re-do!

I would never have allowed my mother to move in with me
