>talented writer
>not making easy money writing papers for friends while you're in college
>not writing a novel and trying to publish it
>>
>>37244426
If you want that $40k job, then you're going to have to keep pushing through with your education. Also a good idea to join phony extracurriculars and stupid student government in college too

You're most likely going to be stuck in hellish $20k jobs or the military with just a high school degree.
>>
>>37244815
is that what you did anon? writing a novel isnt easy and i hate writing papers
>>
>>37244426
Does a >3.5 in applied maths count? Math is just easy for me I don't feel smart at all because of the whole neet thing.
>>
>be good at sports
>football through middle and highschool
>decent grades when I bothered to try or a subject captured my interest
>decent potential in art and computer shit
>threw it away to get a deadend job cleaning floors

Eh, could have been worse. I mean, the football years has left me with head pain that hasn't stopped in well over a decade, just constant throbbing and stabbing and feeling like my brain is trying to escape out the back of my eyes and through the top of my head. Good thing I quit before I got serious brain damage, but shit, I wish I'd at least kept the conditioning part up.

>and i hate writing papers

The fuck does that matter? You're doing it for money, not for fun. Christ, kids these days.

>>37244426
Then:
>straight A's
>actively involved in community
>exercised regularly
>financially stable family
>gifted writer

Transition:
>stopped exercising
>stopped caring about school
>become recluse
>waste family's money on trivial shit
>parents divorce, Dad now spends almost all of his money on the quest for poontang

Now:
>20
>slowly losing friends
>tv, internet, and video games no longer a valued source of escapism
>resort to drugs, tobacco, and alcohol to fulfill bleak hole
>realize my Dad and I wasted his money on meaningless shit when it could have been used to better myself while I was younger by using it to pay for hobbies like music, sports, etc.
>try and teach myself music since no money
>can't play for shit without lessons
>work dead end job
>suffer lethargy
>suffer writer's block, have a ton of great ideas in my head about how to tell my life story (memoir) but can't get them down on paper
>have committed petty theft in order to feed my drug, alcohol, and tobacco addiction
>barely exercise anymore
>live with Dad

I've considered joining the military. That seems to be my only ticket out of this place. If that is the case, then I think I could find it within myself to drop all of my vices and rebuild myself.

>>37244848
Not true. His age is a big factor, as well as location. I live in nee york, and got into the pool business at 18, I just have a HS deploma, as does everyone i work with. No one went to college. We all make $45-$80k a year. I'm at a comfy $55, my first year with this new company.
>>
>>37245112
New York or NYC?

50K in nyc is 20k anywhere else. OP probably isn't a normie like you. He's gonna be stuck in crpappy jobs unless he's a Chad.

Do you really think a 3.7 is a good GPA in high school? Top fucking kek. It's a good GPA if you want to go to a shithole state school with >50% acceptance rate. Why are robots such losers? Did you really think you had a bright future?
>>
>>37245244
True. OP had a" smart, but not talented" GPA.
>>
>>37245334
>>37245244
i know its not great, but it was prep school for turbo-autists
i had to take french (AP) and latin, as well as AP calc 1& 2, and AP stats
as well as AP european history
>>
>>37244426
i'm graduating an ivy league school and i feel like wasted potential
>>
>>37245551
Calc is fucking easy you brainlet piece of shit. All the rest of those classes are GPA boosters, are you retarded? You could easily get a 5 on any AP history/gov exam if you're not a subhuman 80 IQ retard.

>AP language class
Top fucking kek. You think taking 5 AP classes makes you a hardass?

>but it was prep school for turbo-autists
Then you have no excuse to have less than a 4.2 if you took AP classes. If you got B's in a high school curriculum you're a dumbass. You had a bright future at McDonald's my man. Sorry to burst your bubble, but everyone can get a 3.7 with absolutely minimal effort. Even absolute retards could get a 4.0.

>full ride scholarship to private college
