So, where are you in life?

Considering your goals, aspirations, etc....how close are you to being "happy" and "where you want to be"?

If you've reached every goal (work, family, physical, spiritual, etc) and you'd die a happy person tomorrow, than you'd be a 10.

If you are in college working towards a degree you're probably not quite there but you know where you are headed...maybe a 6-7.

If you're completely unsure of where you're headed and wake up every morning not knowing what will happen by nightfall, you'd be a 1.

I know it's a vague question, but I'm curious where everyone is :)

I have finished my BS degree, but i still fee lost enough to vote for a BIG 2 (+/- 1). Just dont know what the hell i want to do with my life. Even though i graduated with good grades and all that, I still feel LOST most of the time. BTW BS was in CS.

Junior in college... if i manage to take advantage of interest rates in some 3rd world countries, i'll jump upto 7-8....

But I will never be 9 or 10 before I see my parents proud of me / and marry and have my own happy family....

Man, if its a -1 or 0 then you're ready to commit suicide.
From reading various posts from you have a decent job and such.....can't be that bad.

Look at me, I work at McDonalds. I know for a fact that there is no way I'll still be here in the long run but I wouldn't give myself a 0.

POSITIVE:
The job pays pretty well to where I can save 500-1000 a month.
I have 0 debt and the car is paid for.
I work with people that I've known all my life.

NEGATIVE:
The stress level is high.
Can't take more than 1 week off at a time.

I'd give myself a 6 and my reasoning is that I know at least 60% of the people would rather to be in my situation.
