When a guidance counselor says "you can do anything,"

Go to college regardless of what shit you wanna study
More people go to college more funding we get

It means that you should shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.

>>1034641
I am fucking confuse by your post. Are you studying physics at Yale? Or you're just a neet traveling the world?

>>1034641
Well seriously, I don't know what people like me normally end up doing.

>>1034598

I see, well academia is a joke anyways. Research money is so fucking shit that most leave for industry. Just do whatever is profitable and can make you happy.

>>1034663

>just do what makes you happy anon!

Here we fucking go again.

So sick of this shit

>>1034669

>profitable and makes you happy

Nigger, if there was an obvious answer to this nobody would even ask for advice. Doing what you love will lead you to being a homeless anal prostitute addicted to crack and doing what's profitable will turn you into a robot that works 100 hours a week for Big Evil Corporation to afford a better watch, no social life and puts you into an early grave. These are the options.

Just do IT stuff. Lazy man way to life.

>>1034672
Anyone who asks that question wants a balance.

>>1034658
LOL. Ivy league graduate here.

Do what you want to do. You'll be better at it and be more willing to stick with it because of it, no matter how many people say it's dumb.
