That's why it's important to find a job in a field you love. No point in spending a large chunk of your life in a field you hate over money. |
Yeah, I thought the same but... how long before I get bored? How long before I hate it? Or worst of all, how long before I feel like I've accomplished my fill and don't know what to do next? I'm not even sure if it would be a mistake and a waste of a majority of my lifetime on this planet.

Well if you find something you truely love than you might not ever get bored, but say in 10-15 years you have had enough than you find something else you're passionate about. My friend recently started taking things he finds for cheap at garage sales over at a local flea market and selling them. He says he's never been happier. He spends all his time driving around looking through other peoples things that they no longer want, or hitting up thrift stores and than he sells them that weekend at the flea market. Honestly he finds at least 100-200$ worth of gold and silver throughout the week alone for dirt cheap because places can't tell if its real or costume. Last week he sold 1400$ worth of junk which he spent 300$ on. That's not too shabby. With time maybe he'll make more and more who knows. His g/f gets on his case about not feeling secure etc but he doesn't give a rats ass he's finally doing something he loves and he's never been happier. Be honest with your self and find your passion.

Thanks. That's good advice. I guess I'm just doubting that's even possible with how long it usually takes and how slow I feel my progress has been. I suppose a more positive way to view it all; would be that, regardless of corporate powerhouses and capitalist greed, it's all just human creation in the end.
