What do you want to be when you grow up?

[Lorizael]

Since this is a forum dedicated to people that play a computer game, I so no reason to qualify this statement for those that feel they have already grown up.

What do you see yourself doing as an adult? How do you plan to pay all the bills while still loving whatever it is you do for most of your waking hours?

Are you living the dream life? Are you exactly where you want to be professionally speaking? Will you be stuck in your dreary 9-5 job until you’ve worked long enough for retirement benefits to kick in?

What are you planning on doing to get to where you want to be? How long will it take? Will you achieve it?

I am living teh dream life

You're happy with providing nothing of value to society?

[SlowwHand]

I'll do anything else. Bank robber jumps to mind.

I do provide value to society, but that's incidental and independent of my happiness.

I have a friend who holds pretty much the same opinion. He has some pretty elaborate plans. Want to team up with him?

Oh, I don't do it through my job. But my job is one of teh things that facilitates my doing it in other ways.

My goal is to be a kid again.
Hopefully only a few more years away.

I thought you were the daughter of a young woman now.

[rah]

That too.

She's a soph at school, so give her a few years to graduate and FORE.

Man, what a coincidence; I just got a job interview. Only one company has declined to hire me after conducting an in-person interview.

This job is half as far away as my current job and would probably pay me 25% more. Wow, my day just got better.

Here's hoping the interview goes well.

That's what you think. At 56 and 57 respectively, my mother and father just got the house to themselves when my brother and I moved out in July.

That's why we figure halfway through her senior year, well move to Florida.


Back in the 70's when I graduated, my ole man said you've got 90 days, then you're out. I was gone in 10.

My times have changed.
