I had a very basic goal. A monetary goal.

Make X by Y. I envisioned this plan in high school.

I met it at like 23-24.

I think I considered what I was/am good at and researched jobs that paid the most while taking classes and working REALLY fucking hard.

An internship led to a job led to a career.

Now I’m kinda bored even in a career analogous job switch and I’m wondering if I don’t need to blow everything up and do something different.

I consider myself very lucky because a lot of shit was prep, plus, right place and time.

And I still feel like I stuck to my morals and didn’t do anything outstandingly evil.
