Goals in life?

What is your goal in education and career?
What is your most realistic choice of education and career?
What is your most unrealistic choice of education and career that you probably won't experience?

I had no intention of ever returning to school, but my new employer will pay for 6 hours of tuition per semester and that’s really too good a deal to pass up. I suppose I’ll do Information Studies, which is about information technology and architecture.

I was going to move to London and become a Bus Conductor, but the rest of my Buses have passed away on December 9th, so my Goal is to win $9 Million or more on the 6/49, than move to London and apply for a Job, at the London Bus Museium Next Year. Did I spell Museium, right? I'd be happy, just to polish and shine my Buses for the Customers to admire.

1) I want to get an education that will lead to a career that has a lot of money.

2) Realistically I will get a bachelors degree in electrical engineering and a masters degree in something and eventually get a job that pays well.

3) Unrealistically I will get a doctorate and become an important figure of some sort.

Done with education as far as I'm concerned. Currently trying to start my own small graphic design business, and looking for other legitimate telecommuting work. I'd love to be my own boss even if it is hard work.

Non-hectic clerical work for some small business in town.

Finishing my Criminology degree requirements and doing something technology/science-related for the local police department without becoming an officer.
Edit: Or being a concert pianist, which is um hard to do if you can only play by ear.

My long-reaching goal is to hold on to full-time employment, move out, get independent and....

that's it.

I just don't have any ambitions, if I was asked what the perfect job or life would be I'd have no idea. So I'm putting along until something better arrives, and if it doesn't I'm not exactly relying on it.

Is that the bottom of the barrel?

job or getting on ssdi, apartment, girlfriend

Not sure there is a few things I would like to learn but as for major education like university’s I am done with that. I hope to learn Spanish it really helps to know some when you live in California. I also hope to learn how to read music ( no I don’t play an instrument confused yeah so am I). With my career I am pretty happy I would like to make more money and get more hours so I can make a proper living.



Most likely I will stay where I am for a while and hope for a promotion in a few years.



Winning the lotto. I don’t gamble so like that’s going to happen.

How very a-Museing!

1. Whatever gets me a fun job.
2. Neurology or some sort of engineering
3. Band member. Whatever instrument; I play guitar, but I'm not better at that than I am at any other instrument (and not because I'm good at all instruments, if I expressed that correctly).
Writer. The only problem is that I don't like writing narration nor poetry nor journalism, so oh well. I could invent a whole new genre!

Save humanity from itself.

(I think big)

I have always wanted to have my name listed in Encyclopedias for having done something Earth-shatteringly brilliant, such as turning the entire World to Vegetarianism!.

My goals are to complete my degree in Philosophy and Psychological Studies, move to the Outer Hebrides, buy a house with some land, and set up a small animal haven-cum-education centre (educating children about respecting animals and the environment).
