    LOL at people who go to college to get good-paying jobs (srs)

    When, in reality, you should do only what you love. Yeah, more money would be nice, but I'd rather major in Exercise Science and do exactly what I do now: lift and enjoy life.

    I LOL at all that *******s that get so stressed out about grades and *******s that go into all these "high-paying" fields doing something they absolutely hate.

    I cut out EVERY SINGLE THING that doesn't support my goals and ambitions, whether it be school, a job, friends, family, or anything, really.



    "Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition."

    -Steve Jobs

    you can also find a compromise. i'd love to be a professional smartphone juggler, but that won't be enough to feed a family when the time will come, get me good savings for when im old, etc etc

    i won't do something i hate just for money, but maybe something i don't love 100% but has solid prospects

    I would never want to do what I love as my job. Because then it becomes my job, and not the hobby that I love.

    Good for you OP

    You go do what you wanna do and go let people who want to go to university do what they wanna do.

    Everyone wins.

    Although last time I checked I don't see people going to university and do a hard degree calling out people who don't.

    No compromising, brah. I will be a CSCS, CPT, nutritionist, and, HOPEFULLY, a gym owner. There is NOTHING else I will EVER do. I REFUSE to compromise, as stupid as that may sound.

    EDIT:^^^Brah, I AM in a University. Getting Exercise Science degree. Need it so I can give the illusion that I actually learned chit and so I can get letters next to my name to further my ambitions.

    you're only saying this because you don't have any other options. I just graduated with a degree in biology, got accepted into the best chiropractic school. But I'm not going, because I just got offered a much better paying job in an unrelated field that won't cost me 4 more years along with 4 more years tuition. People always say money isn't everything, but wait until your are in that situation

    but for every successful self made man there are many delusional deadbeats who go "follow their dream" and make the mistake of dropping education or following a path with not many chances of success.

    good luck mate. nothing wrong with following a dream or what you like, but it comes down to how "crazy" it is. wanting to be a gym owner is different from people who want to make a living through putting pics on instagram

    Brah, before a knee injury that made me miss class and fail ALL my classes senior year, I had a full-ride scholarship to Princeton, pending me keeping my GPA above a 3.0 (srs).

    Its funny, I've seen a lot of businesses go under that people start in which they are selling items that they are passionate about. Example: There was this Filipino Food store in my city that this guy and his wife started. They only lasted a year before going out of business, sure they were doing what they loved....but there wasn't a market or high demand for the products in their store. You can't just sell stuff you think is awesome, you have to know that what your selling is something people will likely buy. Now they are worse off than when they started.

    Moral of the story is, sometimes you have to throw your passion and beliefs to the side in order to be successful.

    So basically what you're saying is things can only make you truly happy if you can eat them?
