what's your 5 year plan?

>>1081580
>start a PhD at Oxford or join the French Foreign Legion

These things really don't help you to achieve your stated end goal, particularly

>>1081580
>Run for local council
are you a bong, if so what party?

>5 year plans

Why bother? I don't even know what will happen next week? Having a 5 year plan is like having a plan for what the weather will be like in 5 years. It's completely asinine

>2016
Raise money. I'd like at least $3000 in savings. Bare minimum
If I play my cards right I am pay off my jeep, but that will take a toll in the 3k plan
Qualify QAI
Possibly buy a house with my VA loan, or continue to rent. October is when my lease is up.

>2017
Transfer to new job (shore duty, military)
Start on college in the aerospace field. If I take a test I can get an aerospace technician degree, so do that. start an apprenticeship in the field at my job, and work on the engineering side of the field with college.
If I didn't pay off jeep last year, automatic payments will settle the matter.
Make contacts with Lockheed Martin, who works hand in hand with my job on shore duty.
Save $10k this year
Possibly get married to the girl I live with right now

>2018
By now the stock market will have crashed and burned, so buy stocks in an American Auto manufacturing company. If America bails out a company it's going to be our cars. Weed will be becoming more socially acceptable so invest in PM before they start selling it.
Continue degree, contacts, saving money.
Gf/future wife gets birth control implant out, possibly start a family

>2019
Continue saving, education, and contacts.
I will be out of the military by now. Using my TS clearance, degree, and familiarity with the programs/work, apply for Lockheed Martin, who is also conveniently taking over my shore duty over the next few years entirely.
Backup Plan: get a job in the shipyard as it will continue my pension plan
Backup plan#2: move to New Hampshire and use my job experience to get a job in General Electric with my dad and sister as a reference.

Everyone who I tell my plan to says I have a good plan, so huzzah

Get good grades, make profitable algorithmic trading software.

Finish first BSc (statistics). Do some volunteer work.

Either start MSc abroad or continue second BSc (CS) and start with MSc at my uni.

After I'm done with studying I want to work abroad, probably in finance or data science. I don't know yet where I want to do my MSc and when I'll graduate so I cannot place this under a certain year.

>Open up office, have at least 500< under my app

500 what? Thousand? Million? Because the former won't get you permaBahamas money, and the latter is entirely unobtainable.
