My thoughts as of recently...
1) I have never had a job that will further my life or give me what I want out of a carreer. That's why they've all been JOBS, not carreers. If I take other people who have degrees from college as examples, then going to college to get the carreer I want is just as risky as playing craps. In fact Most of the people I know with degrees havent done shit with them and cant get a job in their related field. So now they work at the same jobs as I have had, bartending or serving, except for they have an enormous debt from college.
2) The people whom I do know that have good money and love their jobs are either drug dealers, ex-drug dealers, or started their own business doing something they love. I have done 2 of those three things. Now I believe the only way Im gonna really be successfull is to start my own business. Even though Im broke, when I do get enough money I want to get a business license, tools or equipment for the business, and start out of the home. Then I would be doing something I love, answer to myself, and can put in as much or as little work. I would feel like my work meant something.
So, the way I figure it is.... Im broke allready, working for others doesnt give me a feeling of accomplishment or progression, and I like working hard and having projects. What the fuck do I have to lose? Yeah, that's my plan. If I go to school, Im going to school to help MY BUSINESS, not to help me get a job working for someone else. Sounds good to me. I dont know why it took me this long to figure out that this is the only way for me. It's allways been right in front of my face and I've known it in my heart. Yeah. Later kids...

You have nothing to lose. Start a business. When you do something you love, you don't care if you make money. People will see your passion and gravitate to you and hand over money.
