You sound very intelligent. It's a good idea to go to college immediately after highschool but a lot of people never think of it. You really have a big leg up.
What job do you have now, if I could ask?

Kek insecure dickhead detected. Bet you're always miserable because you get jelly whenever you see ppl more successful than you and get an overinflated sense of ego whenever you see someone worse off.

Kek he also didn't tell me what job he has now

He's pissed about something, wonder what it is. Probably never had a job before so now that he has the one he does he doesn't appreciate it. On my native board we would say "get fucked normie"

Holy shit, stop making me cringe.
You're fine with graduating early, I did the same.
But it doesn't fucking matter in the end.
People can graduate at 30 and still have a good life.

And, please stop posting, I can't help but imagining a high pitched 10 year old voice.

I enrolled at 21 and completed a bachelors in 4 years.

I guess that's pretty retarded.

I'm gonna kill myself now.

Work at McDonalds as a middle aged crew member and suffering slight depression at my situation. However, I do sell a few stuff on ebay fpr items I bought that have inflated in price. Very small scale as it's hard to get good ratings when not selling a lot of crap. Not very business minded so I only consider it making a little cash on the side.

Went from EMT to physicians assistant

My salary went from below 40k to over 80k in under 4 years. I love my job
