Help a brotha out

Well you did ask

I think we have a misunderstanding lol

Your focus and time are limited and despite what anyone tells you this is a very important time in your life (maybe even be the most important). Dabble in everything but don’t stretch yourself too thin, make sure to focus on a couples of things over all else whatever those things are.

I was asking about the posts on your profile

Avoid debt as much as you can, use cash if possible, don't fall for the credit card scam; work a job on the side to pay off whatever you need to pay off and don't think you're ever too good to work a simple job nor be embarrassed by it. Don't go to college/Uni if you aren't planning to enter a certain work field, like being a doctor, teacher, engineer etc; like don't take marine biology or some other useless cash grab guillotine. Never abandon a passion or hobby, it will keep you sane, you're never too old to like anything and stay away from the people that belittle you for your interests; in fact find people that share your hobbies, people that are also honest with you and can tell you how it is. Keep your family ties, exercise, eat healthy, learn to forgive, learn to let go; what you may aim to do in life may not be working out, don't be naïve and think you can tough through it, assess your situation and let go if need be, holding on will just hurt you in the future, unnecessary risks aren't brave their foolish. Once you've settled down get yourself a wife or husband, start a family and invite me over for dinner.

1. Make sure you know what degree and career you're interested in. Do not waste credits(or the equivalent) of them on classes you won't need.

2. Make sure the career you chose has a good ROI(return on investment). Once you pick a career you don't want to be saddled in debt

3. Live on campus, it's a lot more fun and you can make more connections. Part of building your career is networking.

Your focus and time are limited and this is a very important time. Don’t stretch yourself too thin, make sure to focus on one thing over all else whatever that is.

Thank you. What I’ve been hearing from college advisors is to try as many things as possible but to only commit to a few that you can really focus on an put your time towards.

Also the subjects are a lot harder, do not slack off or next thing you know you're stuck with a D

Oh yeah, don't forget to make even smallest ties with people you will meet, attempt the parties cuz you might find there interesting people. Medicine students are wild immortal creatures but it's such a fun to drink with them.

Don’t just apply that advice to academics (make sure to do that though). Apply it to your social relationships and goals as well. That’s probably the best advice I can give that isn’t super specific to my own experience.

Thank you. My college sorta has a reputation where a lot of the people their aren’t very genuine and instead are rather shallow. It’s unfortunate but I know there’s good people everywhere. I know I could always fall back on like a job and work for 40 years then retire. I know it sounds nieve or out of touch but I’m scared of that. I want to spend my life doing things that are my own choices. I feel like I have the motivation I’m just scared to take that leap of faith but I know if I don’t I’ll never get anywhere. When I do get to where I want to be, I’ll remember this advice and invite you over for dinner wherever I may be.

 

[Rottkins]

party man, party cuz it will always pay you well, having connections in many fields. Power is in people.

I’ve been meaning to talk to you. You’re in IB or finance right? I’m trying to decide if that’s something I want to do. My school has a pretty good reputation in undergrad business so I think I’m going to apply to the business school once I’m there. However I don’t know if IB or anything else in finance is something I really want to do. I’m just don’t know about the hours and direction it will take my life. I know it’s a good pathway but I just don’t know if it’s right for me.

I have made many mistake in my life which I struggle to find job for 8 months.

Make sure you have the clear plan what kind of job you really want to be.

If I have know about cad desgin sooner, I wouldn’t struggle to find the job like rage man.

Note: Yes I have a job I like , it is similar to cad design .

My advice: make your sure your resume is good enough. Ask people who know about resume stuff to help.

Yeah I’m actually worried about the whole social aspect more than academics. I’ll do fine academically but I don’t want to let the social opportunities pass me by.

I'm not in IB, I'm in corporate finance. The hours aren't as crazy as IB, it's just sometimes it get's busy and I have to pull 60+ hrs a week. But it's really for like a few weeks in a year.

IB is where the big bucks are, they basically make 3/4ths of my salary on their bonus alone. If you're good with numbers, extroverted and you're fine with sacrificing a couple of years of your life to just work I'd say go for it. 2 years into IB and any MBA program will take you

It's not a weird thing to ask at all. Yes she's dead.
