Well for me it was getting involved with substances off and on for ages and then not saving for retirement until I was in my 40s. Save save save save save people start that 401k asap.

Not traveling
From what I see, every “mistake” I made was necessary to my personal growth and development, so are they actually mistakes?
the 20s of todays generation....relying on technology too much
the 20s of my generation....partying too much

Mine was stopping antidepressants cold turkey and ending up disabled.

...probably not a super common occurrence though. 🤔

The poshest car in the work's car park, they only use it to drive to work because they can't afford a life. Working to pay for a car that they only use for work, but at least it's the newest one there.
