    I was never going to “find myself” and so I should have just gone to college with my friends for computer science and made the good money when jobs were easier to get even though I had no interest at all in it. Hindsight is 20/20 and all that jazz. Now I’m a worthless schmuck in a factory living in someone’s garage paying their mortgage in rent prices.

    All my interests are hobbies, some of them even too expensive for me to do lol they’re nothing you can monetize.

      Take heart: had you done comp sci just for the money, you’d be where you are now. Comp sci isn’t for people in for the money but for people who find it exciting and have no idea their career is timesheets. :-p

      No, really: I saw a LOT of people flame out of the programme, and most of them admitted they were in it for the payday.
