I wanna be a baller haha! Experience the best the world has to offer. Keep working when i don't have to just so i stacks of money, just to stay busy. Fund projects that will better the world, or start a chairty.

I don't know what I want to do yet after 30, but it's a long ways away. The bottom line is i don't want my friends and family to worry about money again, and i want to be remembered in this world somehow.

It does not have to suck. Find a job you like and live in an area you like.

College life was fun, but it is all about maturing and growing up. Just find a group of career friends who are like minded, and you will be fine. Plus there is always happy hour :beer:

Paycheck? Check
No homework/projects/studying? Check
No falling asleep in boring classes? Check
Plenty of free time for fulfilling activities? Check

If I could transplant my house onto a college campus, I might enjoy that for a few more years, but otherwise I do not miss college at all.

I was just glad that instead of doing pointless busy work for no pay, I got to get paid for doing pointless busy work.

After I graduated from college and had a 40hr a week job, my apparment was next to a couple of guys still in college.. we partied alot, went to parties, spring break road trips.. it was a fun few years to kinda extend my college party habits.
