Did you just end your thread title with a preposition?

good luck OP. I'm in the same boat but 22. Being self aware that your life sucks is a good thing, other than not realizing it until 30. Get the best out of school and for gods sake do more than just go to class and leave it. Network, volunteer, look for internships that way you got a cool job lined up for you after you graduate.

e: also don't compare yourself idiot, otherwise you're gonna start making life choices that comfort those comparative anxieties rather than do things you actually wanna do

I wouldn't worry about getting old, Silicon Valley will probably enable wealthy westerners to live to age 200 or something by the middle of this century. The Guardian just published a great article that summarises the whole life extension industry as it stands right now.

40% of people who are in their 30's are still living at home because they are either underemployed or unemployed.

You're golden OP. The Economy has victimized others far worse. No sense in crying over spilled milk.

If you're earning a living and thinking about the future you're doing great. The fact you're worried op means you're already taking steps forward.

My grandfather was the dutiful hard-worker and money-saver, and he had all these plans to finally go travel the world when he retired, but then he got Parkinson's right before he retired, and had to sell his boat because he couldn't keep up with it, and was too sick to really travel and then he basically shriveled up and died over a long slow period.

So I'm glad you had fun and partied, gently caress living for the future. You've just got to try to be more responsible than you were before...but not TOO responsible.

There. You made it.

women at 27-30 are too old for dating them to be a serious life accomplishment that solves all of your problems, though. you have to aim lower for that, but once youre 27-30 its too late. once your 25 its too late.
