BUT... i will say that NO, you're not exactly being REALISTIC... and YES, you are being UPTIGHT, if you honestly think you can't live comfortably unemployed on $100,000/year. living off of $100,000/year doesn't mean you'll be eating $5 fast food specials everyday, riding the bus, and living in a 1 bdrm apt. not even close.

it's not my fault that the threads have some interesting real world stuff that people take seriously. it's annoying that most people these days would rather just be oblivious and joke/say whatevers all day long.

so with that said, that last post was mostly joking... and also me just wondering if maybe i'm wrong to want to own a ferrari when i can look back on my life and see that the times i was happiest were the times when i had the least amount of responsibility (...and no money.)
you're making a comparison based on experiences that hasn't happened yet.

first of all, this thread is not "ruined". i believe, we are generating a healthy discussion here. besides, i was merely responding to what the person i quoted said, and i don't think my response was in any way inappropriate as a response to what she said. besides, dyhappy's thread always somehow become quasi serious bitter discussions, so this really isn't deviating from the norm.
secondly, if you really feel college is the best years of your life, then i feel sorry for you.
thirdly, if you don't enjoy the career that you choose to go into, then i feel sorry for you again. sure i understand some people do not choose to go into the careers they end up in, and i can understand how they are unhappy with work.

however, how can u even begin to compare work to college. college there are no responsibilities, u wake up when u feel like it, dont have to worry about money (i understand some people work during skool), party every night, co eds living right next to you that are down to "party". i dunno bout ur college experience but mine was a blast (i regret no staying a 5th or 6th year, but my parents were on my ass). man i used to love drinking natty and popov. i might actually pity u.
u are way too serious. go down telegraph and visit one of the "clubs" and chill out in oaksterdam already.

when people say "mature" i can't help but think that's another word for boring and crotchety. sounds like you've lost your spirit of adventure. when people get older, they dont have to have tons of responsibility. they choose it. take on a big mortgage, have a couple kids, send em to stupid private school, etc. those are all choices and bad ones, imo. staying in nice hotels and drink expensive poison sounds nice, but it's like ur using it make u feel temporarily better about an otherwise sucky life.

and please stop passing judgement and presume that i am a super serious person just because i choose to be serious on this particular topic. obviously, you haven't read my silly posts in other threads.
i didn't mean it to be insulting. what part of it is incorrect? fyi, i wish i was under 21, but no cigar.
trainwreck, no need to keep beating around the bush. what job do you keep not talking about?
