No idea, I don't really care either. As long I got a roof over my head, food, etc etc, and a little extra to spend when I'm feeling materialistic then I'm good.

It's not so much the money, it's the accomplishment.

Career wise? I don't know. I'm not looking for some special job or be the guy that discovers something ground-breaking.

Just something that makes you happy, I get you

Pretty much, I like construction. I'm thinking about my options to get into it. Petroleum engineering isn't a bad route but I don't care much for money.

Ever had an interest in architecture?

Nah, architecture is more to do with design. I'd like to be the person that brings the design to life.

Ah. Well, you know you can make a huge amount of money if you created a construction company. Make a mark, while doing what you love

Humor me, what's the "idiot's definition" of successful

Six figure income. Wife. Kids. Big house. "Nice" cars. The American Dream.

I doubt it, but I don't really care. As long as I get a decent science or computer related career I'll be happy.

What would be your preference

Biology or astronomy related for science and just your standard office job for computers.

Fair enough, hope you achieve it mate

I honestly have no idea. Right now i'm thinking no.

Why is that?

D/C student in High School
Wasted nearly 3 years at college
Don't know what I want to do
Lack motivation

You know, that kind of stuff.

Extraterrestrial life. Xeno basically means foreign.

I will be 23 in two months. I've spent eight months (almost nine) after graduating college being unemployed. I made a huge mistake choosing a shitty liberal arts major years ago and paying for it. I don't have enough money to get a master's degree. I've been applying to Gamestop and Kmart and now my standards have dropped so low that I would consider myself successful to work shit minimum wage jobs because there's nothing else I can do. I used to think I would be successful and have an important job just because I had any college degree. How wrong I was...

Hard to say. Probably not very.

Don't give up hope mate, climb back up the ladder. You can do it

I'm not sure.
Success for me is basically a happy life. I want a job that I want to wake up for, given that I'm going to spend a lot of life working, I better enjoy it, not point spending my life doing something I don't want to do. It's also not about the money, as long as I can actually live off it, and I enjoy my job, I will be happy with it.

Hopefully I'll get into rockets/space sector.

I'd say I'm pretty successful now. Doubt I'll get much more successful in the decades to come.

How successful are you now
