No he can't. Lots of people go to school to be what they want to be. I didn't end up where I wanted to be. And I'm pretty sure most of the people on this board aren't in the job that they wanted when they were 10 or even 18( for those of us that are older than 18).
Unfortunately, lots of kids want to be star atheletes or rappers or someone famous, but that rarely happens.
