I agree with most people here.

Just wanted to drop by to say, wow we do have a very friendly and supportive community here and I am proud to be part of this community. Thanks everyone for the online friendships and all.

Best of luck to you Richard!

As most others have said, wait until you finish school and get your income up.



Are you working on a Bachelor’s or Master’s?

You probably know this by now, but psychology is a very low paying field. There isn’t much you can do with a Bachelor’s in psychology (if you want to work in the field).

How do I know, you ask? After putting my Bachelor’s in psychology to great use (retail management), I went back to school for a different field.

If you are an undergrad, I’d really consider grad school if this if this is the field you want to work in.

Couple thoughts here:

1. Education should be your primary focus. You're lucky that you've got a chance to live rent free. Take advantage of this time. Save money where you can and finish your degree. Ultimately, a solid and well paying career should be your primary focus.

2. Let women think of their own reasons not to f*ck you. Don't do it for them.

LOL! Very true bro, but I have to make some friends first around here.

Yeah I found that out one day in class not too long ago and will probably go for my master's, but if not, what would you recommend as an alternative field for my master's?

There is some really good advice on here and it looks like you know exactly what you need to do. All I want to add is that I was in your situation just a few years back and did what everyone is stating on this forum: save, work hard and graduate. It took some time but I finally got a great job, moved out of my parents house, met a girl shortly after and she was actually the one that encouraged me to get my S2K.

I'm 32 by the way.

Have you researched job availability or job demand? You don't want to pick something obscure where you can't find a job after getting out of school. Start with something that you love to do and research to see what kind of demand there is in your area. But on the flip side something that you love to do might not be practical as a profession. You said you like to work on cars. Maybe that is a route you can go but keep in mind that there are lots of competition in that field so what do you bring to the table that will set you apart?

I don't really have anything to add that hasn't already been said, but, good luck Richard! I'll be looking out for your "I just bought an S2000" post in near future!
